To configure the Studio for Petrel extractor, you must create a configuration file. This file must be in YAML format. The configuration file is split into sections, each represented by a top-level entry in the YAML format.
You can use the sample minimal configuration file as a starting point for your configuration settings.
You can also use substitutions with environment variables in the configuration files. The values wrapped in ${} are replaced with environment variables with that name. For example, ${COGNITE_PROJECT} will be replaced with the value of the environment variable called COGNITE_PROJECT.
Cognite
Include the cognite section to configure which CDF project the extractor will load data into and how to connect to the project. This section is mandatory and should always contain the project and authentication configuration.
Cache
Include the cache section to enable or disable caching of data to disk. Use these parameters to avoid intermittent failures.
Logging
Include the logging section to set up logging to a standard output, such as a terminal window.
Petrel-studio
Include the petrel-studio section to configure the connection to Studio for Petrel.
