HOUSTON– Baker Hughes has released its next-generation JewelSuite 6 software, with integrated applications for geological modeling and reservoir engineering, geomechanical modeling, and reservoir stimulation. The software provides effective modeling solutions to help operators increase certainty in their operations, reduce costs, and improve productivity.

Developed in close collaboration with a major E&P operator, each JewelSuite 6 software application has a modern intuitive user interface, automated workflows, and built-in smart rules to help increase operational efficiency, data accuracy, and accelerate the learning curve for new users.

The company says the geological modeling and reservoir engineering application can rapidly build accurate models and run multiple scenarios in complex reservoirs assist the user in determining an economically viable development plan for projects.

The geomechanical modeling application creates detailed models that assist users in predicting drilling and production problems and developing solutions to mitigate them. The application can be used independently or as part of integrated geomechanical workflows—from 1D well-centric models to advanced 3D reservoir-centric models, 3D fault stability analysis, and 4D full-field finite-element geomechanical simulations—all within a single interface.
