There is an emerging trend for the integration of systematic petrographic analysis with petrologic, geochemical, wireline log, petrophysical and seismic analysis, in order to tackle the challenges involved in the reduction of the exploration risks and optimization of the development and production of such reservoirs.
The Sedimentary Geology Laboratory (LAGESED) of UFRJ acquired the updated versions of Petroledge and RockViewer systems for petrographic knowledge management of carbonate and siliciclastic rocks.
