    As I mention throughout the review, Oasis montaj shines both for processing and visualizing data while working with gravimetric data . It's 2D and 3D geologic basement models can be really detailed and, depending on the interpreter, can be really accurate. Plus, they can serve as an excellent tool for oil exploration when integrating them with seismic and well log information. Since it is an expensive software, small companies or universities with low budgets would be better using other programming tools.

    Petrel is an extremely powerful tool and for geological 3D modeling is the go-to tool, it's Sequential Indicator Simulations, Object-Based modeling or multiple point statistics modeling workflows are top notches and I highly advise its use. I wouldn't recommend using it for seismic interpretation based on seismic attributes since it can be a little bit limited in this aspect.

    Pros
    Geosoft
    • Geological basement modeling both in 2D and in 3D.
    • Processing and quality control on geophysical, geochemical and geological data.
    • Data both in the database or uploaded is provided through a spreadsheet and an integrated profile display window, so it is extremely easy to visualize the information or modify it.

    • The object tree organization in Petrel is intuitive and user-friendly.
    • Easy to handle data across multiple UTM zones by allowing geodesic coordinates.

    Cons
    Geosoft
    • The learning curve can be a little steep at first.
    • It is an expensive software, so there are several alternative options that require more programming but are cheaper or free.
    • It requires lots of processing power for it to work smoothly.

    • Petrel is extremely expensive, working with it in a small company is almost impossible. This shouldn't be an issue for a large company or for a big university with a large budget for investigation.
    • Since it has so many functions it can be overwhelming once you begin using it, so I highly recommend to pay for a Schlumberger instructor.
    • The seismic attributes could be improved since they are not entirely accurate.

    I use Petrel and competitor products for different functions. If I didn't have Petrel, it would be a lot more difficult to work with my aerially extensive dataset and manipulate my data with geographic coordinates.

    Return on Investment
    Geosoft
    • Using oasis montaj allowed to work on several projects for gravimetric data interpretation that represented a great profit for our business.
    • Oasis was an excellent learning tool that brought profit to our university since all the work we did were actual problems that when solved generated profit for the faculty

    • Working at the University of Oklahoma the investment is well paid since geoscientist are formed with the best tool available.
    • Keeping in mind that the software is really expensive, for the product to have an economic positive impact the project's revenue has to be large.
