Abstract

When the term ‘visualization’ is used in the oil and gas industry, it is usually referring to the viewing of complex geologic structures in three-dimensional space. This paper illustrates insights gained by applying interactive visual environments to petroleum industry data that has traditionally been presented in spreadsheets, line graphs, and bar charts. Two information visualization tools, Treemap and SpaceTree, will be shown applied to a variety of oilfield related data.
