Automating tasks

When constructing static reservoir models, it can be very advantageous to automate various actions and processes, especially if you are performing a study that requires many iterations of the model. The workflow automation features in JewelSuite 2026.1 Subsurface Modeling enable you to automatically perform repetitive actions, making modeling steps reproducible. Workflow automation works well with the Audit Trail, as the Audit Trail allows you to review and even re-run automated actions that you have previously executed.

You can create powerful macros, written in Visual Basic or C#, as part of workflow automation. With these macros, you have full access to all objects and can perform operations on them. These objects include wells, logs, grids, properties, and surfaces. Additionally, the macros have full access to the .NET Framework. The Macro Editor is similar to Visual Studio. Macros are highly re-usable and portable, so you can conveniently share them with team members and colleagues.
