Abstract

In the late 1990s, Virtual Reality (VR) and advanced visualization technology created a paradigm shift in the work processes in the petroleum industry. Major contributions to this shift came from the results of the R&D VR project presented in this chapter. The chapter describes the development of a VR platform for production, especially well planning, and exploration reconnaissance. The platform supported cross-disciplinary work inside a CAVE setup which substantially reduced the time to plan well trajectories.
