Unlike other SDK and software development tools found in the oil and gas industry, Magma™ contains unique features that allow E&P and service companies to focus on their workflows and algorithms rather than ancillary problems related to software development. These unique features include viewers for any type of data, robust 3D structural frameworks and a geocellular grid builder, as well as the ability to read and write directly to and from all common industry databases including Petrel and OpenWorks.
