Configure the Studio for Petrel Extractor

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.

`idp-authentication`:
project: ${COGNITE_PROJECT}
idp-authentication:
tenant: ${COGNITE_TENANT_ID}
client-id: ${COGNITE_CLIENT_ID}
secret: ${COGNITE_CLIENT_SECRET}
scopes:
- ${COGNITE_SCOPE}

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.

ParameterDescription
cdf-file-storageSet the cloud blob storage engine that will store Petrel data objects. Valid options are azure and google.
cdf-base-urlInsert the base URL of the CDF project. The default value is <https://api.cognitedata.com >.
cdf-projectInsert the CDF project name you want to ingest data into.
cdf-oidc-authorityInsert the credentials for authenticating to CDF using an external identity provider. You must enter either an API key or use IdP authentication.
cdf-oidc-client-idEnter the client ID from the IdP.
cdf-oidc-secretEnter the client secret from the IdP.
cdf-oidc-tenantEnter the Azure tenant.
cdf-oidc-scopesList the scopes.
cdf-raw-databaseEnter the CDF RAW database name that will store Studio for Petrel objects state store. If the database doesn't already exist, the extractor creates a database.
data-set-idEnter the data set ID for the CDF Files. Set to 0 or no value if you don't want to add a data set ID.
state-dbSelect which database to store the extractor state. If you don't use this parameter, the extractor uses an in-memory state store.

Cache

Include the cache section to enable or disable caching of data to disk. Use these parameters to avoid intermittent failures.

ParameterDescription
