DownloadPetra 2016 Release DocumentsRelease NotesWhat's NewPETRA 2014 Standard (v3.9) Release InfoIHS is excited to announce the release of IHS Petra 2014. IHS continues to develop and introduce highly requested feature functionality to significantly improve workflow efficiencies and includes interface and usability improvements. In conjunction, we are updating the version numbering methodology across our Energy software portfolio to a more consistent year-based version number.
Petra Standard Edition will be updated from version 3.x and Petra Workgroup Edition will be updated from version 4.x.
Petra 2014 Workgroup also contains multiple performance optimizations contributing to better overall stability for large, multiuser environments in conjunction with the enhancements listed above. Customers currently implementing version 4.x can contact customer care to receive the most current edition. Customers that may be interested in trialing this edition can also contact customer care to see if this edition may fit your large, multiuser environment needs.

Important NoticesPetraSeis DiscontinuedPetra 2014 Standard does not contain or support PetraSeis. Customers that wish to continue using PetraSeis should not upgrade.
The solution, IHS Kingdom 2D/3D Pak, is being quickly integrated with IHS Oil & Gas data and IHS Petra. IHS Kingdom provides an upgraded technology solution for seismic interpretation customers currently using PetraSeis.
Please contact your account manager with questions about transitioning your seismic needs to IHS Kingdom.
Licensing Change - Flexible License Manager UpdateCustomers that are implementing Flexera’s LmTools/Lmgrd as the license manager will need to update to the newer LmAdmin license manager. Petra 2014 Standard requires Flexera’s LmAdmin license manager with upgraded daemon (IHS.exe). This implementation is required for flexible, network licensees prior to updating to Petra 2014. For customers that have already implemented LmAdmin, a new license (IHS.lic) may be required and will be provided upon request. Customers with stand-alone bitlock licenses (USB) require no action as bitlocks are compatible with any version of Petra. Please refer to the
LmAdmin Installation GuideNOTE: It's been brought to our attention that the LmAdmin may be temporarily unavailable on the Flexera website (per the LmAdmin Installation Guide). Please download the LmAdmin install executable and/or the associated IHS Vendor Daemon, as needed:

www.globes.comPETRA updates periodically contain changes and additions to the database tables. If an updated version of PETRA is used to access a shared project, older versions of PETRA may no longer be able to access that project. All PETRA seats within an organization should be updated at the same time. If the organization prefers to test new versions of PETRA before general release to all users, it is best that testing be done with dedicated testing projects rather than projects that the organization wishes still be accessible to older versions of PETRA.
