Norwegian Continental Shelf · Sodir open data

From field name to sourced answer in seconds.

ReservoirIQ verifies field facts against the regulator's own figures, derives water cut, fits decline curves, screens and compares fields, matches plays, and maps wells and seismic coverage. Fourteen tools on one source of truth, and it replaces the hours you spend assembling them by hand.

Public data. Traceable to source. Not a black box.

The problem

The data is open. Using it is slow.

Sodir publishes detailed factsheets, wellbore registers and seismic listings for the Norwegian shelf. Answering a simple question still means several pages, hand cross-referencing and your own arithmetic. That is tedious for one field and easy to get wrong for the twentieth.

What it does

Fourteen tools. One source of truth.

Everything traces back to the regulator's published figures. Anything ReservoirIQ works out itself, using standard petroleum engineering derivations, is labelled as calculated.

Verify and derive

The core: facts checked, trends derived, forecasts fitted.

Verify field facts

Operator, status, discovery year and recoverable reserves, checked directly against Sodir's data.

Water cut trends

Derived from production history, so you see how a field's water handling has changed without rebuilding the curve.

Decline curves

A fast first-pass fit that gives remaining recoverable volume and a production forecast.

Field timelines

Discovery, development, first production and the milestones between, in one readable view.

Map and locate

See where things are, and what is connected to what.

Field map

Fields, facilities, pipelines and sea areas over streets, satellite, bathymetry, topography and bedrock geology, with live latitude and longitude. Pick a field to see the facilities and pipelines connected to it.

Well data and seismic index New

Which wellbores have logs, cores and core photos, and which seismic surveys exist, with links to Sodir. Maps show which surveys cover a field and which fields lie under a survey.

Regional overview New

Compare fields across an area, grouped by area, reservoir period or environment.

Screen and compare

From one field to the whole shelf.

Screening New

Compare many fields at once, with filters for wells by purpose, fluid and status, and timing columns such as years to first production.

Analogues New

Find fields that resemble an existing field or your own prospect, with a chart you can adjust and an optional printable report.

Play match New

Which of Sodir's plays a field sits in, what Sodir says about each play, and a check of whether the field's reservoir environment agrees with it.

Reservoirs New Environment under review

The reservoir units of each field, with their age and depositional environment.

Stratigraphy

Formation tops and ages, laid out so you can read them.

Formation chart New

The formations each wellbore of a field penetrated, side by side, from Sodir's formation-top table. Anything calculated is labelled.

Fence plots New

Cross-sections of formation tops through chosen wells, shown alongside a map of where those wells are.

Geologic age checker New

A quick reference for the age of a unit.

See it working

Maps and indexes you control.

Sodir has thousands of wellbores and seismic surveys. ReservoirIQ never dumps them all on one screen: you choose what to look at, and it stays fast.

Which surveys cover this field? Which fields lie under this survey?

Ask in either direction, for one field or several at once. ReservoirIQ tests the outlines against each other and lists every match, with how each survey overlaps: wholly inside the field, covering it, or partly overlapping.

  • Field outlines and centre points sit on top, with each one switchable on its own
  • Sea areas and field outlines are optional layers, picked one by one
  • Sodir's Norwegian labels translated into English

What data exists on a wellbore, at a glance.

Sodir's own yes/no flags for logs, cores, core photos and more, filtered by field, area, purpose, content, operator and year. Every row links straight to its Sodir Factpage.

  • An index of what exists and where to find it, not the data itself

Find the analogues. Read across the formations.

Place your field or your own prospect among the fields that resemble it, with a chart you can adjust and a report you can print. Then take formation tops through chosen wells and see them as a fence plot, with the wells located on a map.

  • Analogues scored on the properties you choose, and how much each one matters
  • Fence plots from Sodir's formation tops
  • Plays matched to fields, with Sodir's own play descriptions

The data

Public data, handled with care.

ReservoirIQ is built on the Norwegian Offshore Directorate's open data. It is only useful if you can trust where each number came from.

Traceable to source

Every value comes from Sodir. Anything ReservoirIQ calculates itself is labelled as calculated, never passed off as published.

Plain English

Where Sodir publishes labels in Norwegian, such as survey status and area, ReservoirIQ shows them in English and keeps anything it cannot translate exactly as published.

Open licence

Data from the Norwegian Offshore Directorate is used under NLOD 2.0, with attribution.

A note on depositional environment. Depositional environment, and the details derived from it, are still under review. They are released with that caveat, so treat them as provisional until the review is complete.

Free demo

Try it on a real field. No sign-in.

The demo gives you one field, Gullfaks, and four of the fourteen functions, so you can see exactly how they work and judge the output yourself.

  • Verify, Water cut, Decline curve and Field timeline, on Gullfaks
  • The other functions show in the menu so you can see what exists, and open when you subscribe
Demo: one field, four functions.Subscribe to use all fourteen functions across every Norwegian field, with data downloads.
Who it's for

Anyone who needs a defensible number fast.

Simple on the surface. It is not a reservoir simulator and does not try to be. It is the layer underneath one.

Petroleum and reservoir engineers

Screening, analogues and due-diligence work without re-deriving the same figures each time.

Geoscientists

Formation tops, plays, reservoir units and what data exists on a well, in one place.

Asset managers and analysts

Quick answers on fields you do not work with every day.

Consultants

One consistent way to get oriented on a field across many clients.

Universities and students

Source-transparent figures that suit coursework, theses and published research.
