petro-mcp
MCP server that gives LLMs access to petroleum engineering data and tools.
Parse well logs, query production data, fit decline curves, calculate EUR, and run nodal analysis -- all through natural language with any MCP-compatible AI assistant.
Built by Groundwork Analytics
What is this?
petro-mcp is a Model Context Protocol server that exposes petroleum engineering workflows to LLMs like Claude and other MCP-compatible assistants. Instead of writing scripts to parse LAS files or fit decline curves, just ask your AI assistant in plain English.
Why MCP? MCP is an open standard that lets AI assistants interact with external data and tools. While other energy MCP servers provide commodity prices (OilpriceAPI), petro-mcp is purpose-built for petroleum engineering workflows -- LAS well log parsing, physics-constrained decline curve analysis, nodal analysis, and production diagnostics.
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10 or later (download)
- Claude Desktop (download), Cursor (download), or any MCP-compatible client
Installation
pip install petro-mcp
Or install from source:
git clone https://github.com/petropt/petro-mcp.git
cd petro-mcp
pip install -e .
Quick Start
Configure with Claude Desktop
Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:
Config file location:
- macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json- Windows:
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"petro-mcp": {
"command": "petro-mcp",
"args": []
}
}
}
If installed from source:
{
"mcpServers": {
"petro-mcp": {
"command": "python",
"args": ["-m", "petro_mcp.server"]
}
}
}
Configure with Cursor / VS Code
Add to your MCP settings (.cursor/mcp.json or equivalent):
{
"mcpServers": {
"petro-mcp": {
"command": "petro-mcp"
}
}
}
Use it
Once configured, ask your AI assistant:
- "Read the LAS file at /data/wells/wolfcamp.las and summarize the curves"
- "Load production data from /data/prod.csv and fit a decline curve for Wolfcamp A-1H"
- "Calculate EUR with qi=800, Di=0.06, b=1.1 and a 5 bbl/day economic limit"
- "Run a nodal analysis: 3500 psi reservoir, PI=4.2, 2.875-inch tubing, 150 psi wellhead"

Decline Curve Analysis
The decline curve tools are physics-constrained:
- b-factor bounded to [0, 2] (physical range for Arps models)
- Non-negative rates enforced throughout
- Three models: exponential (b=0), harmonic (b=1), hyperbolic (0 < b < 2)
- Returns R-squared, parameter uncertainties, and residual statistics
Production Data
Accepts CSV files with flexible column naming:
- Date column:
date,Date,DATE - Oil:
oil,oil_rate,BOPD - Gas:
gas,gas_rate,MCFD - Water:
water,water_rate,BWPD - Well name:
well_name,well,Well Name

Example Data
The examples/ directory includes:
sample_well.las-- Synthetic Wolfcamp well log (GR, RHOB, NPHI, ILD, SP)sample_production.csv-- 36 months of decline data for 3 Permian Basin wellsusage_examples.md-- Detailed usage examples
Example Output
Prompt: "Read the LAS file at examples/sample_well.las and summarize the curves"
Well: Wolfcamp A-1H (Spraberry Trend, Midland County, TX)
Depth range: 5000–5020 ft, 0.5 ft step (41 samples)
┌───────┬──────┬────────────────────────────┬───────────────┐
│ Curve │ Unit │ Description │ Range │
├───────┼──────┼────────────────────────────┼───────────────┤
│ GR │ GAPI │ Gamma Ray │ 22–126 │
│ RHOB │ G/CC │ Bulk Density │ 2.53–2.67 │
│ NPHI │ V/V │ Neutron Porosity │ 0.09–0.23 │
│ ILD │ OHMM │ Deep Induction Resistivity │ 3.9–175 │
│ SP │ MV │ Spontaneous Potential │ -30.5 to -2.0 │
└───────┴──────┴────────────────────────────┴───────────────┘
Quick interpretation:
- Shale zones (~5002–5005 ft): High GR (>100), low resistivity,
high NPHI — classic shale signature.
- Clean/tight zones (~5008–5010 ft): Low GR (<30), high resistivity
(>100 ohm-m), low NPHI — likely tight carbonate, potentially
hydrocarbon-bearing.
Limitations
- LAS 2.0 only -- LAS 3.0 and DLIS formats are not yet supported
- Arps models only -- Modified hyperbolic, Duong, and SEPD decline models are not yet implemented
- Simplified nodal analysis -- Uses Vogel IPR and a simplified friction model, not Beggs-Brill or Hagedorn-Brown. Results are directional/screening-level, not suitable for detailed well design
- CSV production data only -- No database, WITSML, or API connectors yet
- No visualization -- Returns JSON data only, no plots
Development
