Avoid dangerous and expensive surprises in pore pressure
Unexpected fluctuations in pore pressures encountered while drilling can cause costly delays and not being prepared can permanently damage potential producing formations. Being able to estimate pore pressure before the initiation of drilling is critical to avoid surprises and expensive problems
Designed by experts in pore pressure
Developed by and for pore pressure specialists, GMI•PressCheck™ is a new PC-based software package for Pore and Fracture Pressure Prediction.
- Can be used independently or as part of GMI’s
suite of advanced software for geomechanical
analysis.
- Flexibility and ease-of-use can reduce project
times by up to 80% compared to traditional workflows.
- Allows information to be easily edited, filtered or
combined depending on the data specifics.
- Allows users to rapidly determine important
properties, such as overburden density, and
compaction trend based on sonic, density and
resistivity logs.

Easy and fast data input and manipulation
GMI•PressCheck allows import of all the industry
standard log types including LAS, LIS, DLIS and
ASCII formats. Data can be quickly passed to
GMI•WellCheck as XML or zip files.
|
The tracks in GMI•PressCheck are designed for quick,
detailed analysis. On input the logs are automatically
separated into tracks by log-type for convenient
smoothing and filtering.

Centroid and Buoyancy effects
GMI•PressCheck allows users to calculate and consider the Centroid
and buoyancy effects on the pressure profile. This effect can cause significant lateral |
 |
changes in the pressure, especially if hydrocarbons
are present. These changes can be noted and
considered when planning mud weights and
performing the WellBore Stability analysis with
GMI•WellCheck.
