The INT log viewer brings visualization to the user without the need for complex application installation or maintenance. "E&P companies know that effective utilization of information is critical to their competitive success," said Paul Schatz, V.P. Business Development of INT. “By making interactive data display available via the internet, PetrisWINDS users will benefit from state-of-the-art geoscience delivered efficiently and economically to the desktop.”
