Hydrocarbon Data System, Inc. is generally known as HDS. It is a superior provider of Petrophysics / Log Analysis software for Geologists, Engineers and Petrophysicists.

HDS 2000 Log Analysis Program takes your digital data and converts it to a Microsoft Access database in Windows based processing (32-bit and 64-bit). Typically there are 1-5 data sets per well, but this system can easily work with very large Curve and Array Data sets.

Likewise, HDS2000 handles a large number of formats for the integration of a variety of information:

  • 1 Value per Depth
  • Open-Hole
  • Cased-Hole
  • Cores
  • LWD Logs (Logging While Drilling) and Wireline
  • MWD Logs(Measured While Drilling)
  • Mud logs
  • Data formats like .LAS, ASCII, Excel, DLIS, LIS, Digitalized tables, entry keyboard, BitMaps, EMF Metafiles, CGM, among others.

File Explorer
– Projects Details


  • Easily find your project by Operator or well names.
  • Visualize and expand at a detailed level the data series, well information, directional survey, etc.
  • View all the details of the information stored in your project
  • View all the existing curves in your dataset such as Gr, Phie, Sw, etc., as well as the creation version of each one.

Well Information
– Well Information


  • Borehole environment is commonly known as Rmf & Run information.
  • This is generally seen on most header pages of well logs.
  • We color code the items in red, which are critical to many calculations.
  • Defaults are in yellow, but they do not have to be printed.
  • Items in blue or white were imported from a LAS file, or manually changed.
  • Add up to 16 different tool runs for wireline or LWD data.

Core Data


HDS2000 includes a list of database information editing tools such as:

  • Spreadsheet editing
  • Smoothing of the curves
  • Displacement of the baseline
  • Editing the curves
  • Environmental Corrections
  • Toolbox of other curve corrections, among others.
  • Incorporate images and information from cores
  • Tying and correlating core information to Wireline logs
  • Move and adjust all image records together or individually
  • Review displacement and adjustment

Visual Display of Calculations


  • Interactive calculation tool for the processing of wireline and closed-space registers.
  • The display of the results is done immediately as an option, since the parameters are already configured.
  • Each step includes input curves and output curves, cross plots for zone identification, parameters and cell options, among others.
  • With HDS2000 you have a complete visualization for the control of input, processing and petrophysical result information.


  • In addition to the above, it includes tools for::

    • Processing of clay sands
    • Quick view of gaseous clay sands
    • Customized processing
    • Viewing and processing with Cross Plot Multi-Well
    • Reports and results with summary of the Play
    • Estimation of Oil and Gas Reserves
    • Interactive platform for generating well logs.
    • Cross sections for correlation.
