Announcing Release of HIIP Version 2.2

HIIP is a depth structure uncertainty and volumetric calculator tool for fast and easy computation of field and prospect volumes and will be of value whether working in exploration, appraisal or field development.
Running under Windows operating systems HIIP is a Java-based software package. Easy to use and portable, HIIP can be run on laptops or desktop PCs and is ideal for rapid testing of volumetric scenarios. Whether in the office or data room, HIIP is an essential tool for geoscientists, new ventures and asset managers.

HIIP allows the user to either create or load existing depth maps and generate multiple geostatistical realisations of depth structure in order to estimate the full range of depth and volumetric uncertainty over a particular area of interest. A comprehensive set of geological scenarios can then be tested in a short time period to come up with GRV ranges. Play and prospect risk factors and probability distributions for petrophysics, fluids and recovery can then be set in order to make probabilistic calculations of HIIP (Hydrocarbons Initially In Place) and Reserves.

HIIP is also available on mobile devices - currently only available on Android.
