Engineers For Engineers

Design on the Same Well

Import the survey, run RodSim, compare up to five designs, and pick the base case, one well record for the team.

Import, Simulate, Compare, Issue

The same steps your engineers run today, in a versioned workspace every teammate opens the same way.

Import

Bring legacy RodStar and SRod files or lake data into the workspace. Rod string and well data load without re-entry.

Well Data In, Designs Out

Import the survey, run RodSim in under 30 seconds, and pick the base case on the shared well

Cubic spline wellbore, step length to 10 ft

Compare up to five designs, set the base case

RodSim How the Design Runs

Built for Wells You Already Design

Deviated surveys, side-by-side cases, and a run fast enough to iterate in the meeting

Survey step to 10 ft

Match step length to the survey so tight turns stay in the model

Cubic spline wellbore

Loads follow the survey you brought in, not a coarse polyline

Five designs side by side

Compare cases in one view and pick the base case

Every Product Opens the Same Well

RodSim, Dynamics, and Automated Design share wells, company context, and equipment libraries

Wells list shared across RodSim, Dynamics, and Automated Design
Same wells and org context across every design product
Collaborate Beyond the Desktop

Design Together, Not Alone

Desktop tools fit one engineer at a desk. PetroBench adds share, comment, and review on the same well.

Share with group or region

Recommended designs go to the team that owns the well

Comments on designs

Notes stay on the well record for the next engineer

Shared workspace

Same well, same designs, no conflicting file copies

RodSim version history with engineer comment on the well record
Share well with group or region via organization switcher Group / Region share
Vector Optional Agent Help

Agent Help on the Open Well

Vector reads, simulates, and drafts on the same well record in RodSim. Live-well writes stay behind guardrails until you approve

Reads and sims on the well you have open

Same rod-lift engine as RodSim

Live-well writes queue for engineer review

Hi John.

Diagnose individual wells, run sims, interpret dyno cards.

Uses your org wells and sims.

FAQ For Engineers

Questions Engineers Ask First

What production engineers ask before a pilot.

PetroBench keeps the workflow your engineers already know: import, simulate, compare, and pick the base case. Designs live on a shared well record with version history, the same well opens the same way for every engineer on the team.

During pilot, engineers run the same wells side by side in PetroBench and your desktop tool. Inputs and outputs stay on the well record so the team compares what they already know before they commit.

Yes. Bulk import handles the common legacy formats so existing well files and rod strings come in without rebuilding. Native connectors to Snowflake, Databricks, and WellView keep the rest of the data flowing.

Yes. Pilots run side by side with your current desktop workflow. Engineers compare the same wells in both tools before the team commits to PetroBench as the design workspace.

Each simulation and recommended design stays on the well record with its inputs and outputs. Engineers open prior versions, compare side by side, and see who changed what, without hunting email attachments.

RodSim compares up to five designs side by side on the same well. Pick the base case from that view. That recommended design stays on the well for the team.

Access follows your org tree, headquarters, division, region, and group. Role-based permissions scope which wells an engineer opens and which actions they can take.

Yes. Headquarters publishes equipment libraries, unit systems, and templates. Divisions and regions inherit those so every engineer designs against the same catalog.

No. Vector is optional agent help on the open well. Engineers design and simulate in RodSim without it. When Vector is enabled, live-well writes stay behind approval.

Yes. Set the base case and export the report from the well record. The recommended design stays in the workspace so operations and the next engineer open the same version.

Start with a well you already design. Import it, run RodSim, compare side by side, and pick the base case.
