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.
MCP server that gives LLMs access to 70 petroleum engineering tools.
Parse well logs, fit decline curves, run PVT correlations, calculate drilling hydraulics, evaluate well economics, and more -- all through natural language with any MCP-compatible AI assistant.
Built by Groundwork Analytics
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 -- well log interpretation, decline curve analysis, reservoir engineering, drilling calculations, production engineering, and economics.
Prefer a web UI? Try the Production Close Assistant -- upload messy production data, get clean analysis-ready output in seconds. Free, no signup. Also: Decline Curve Analysis | Well Economics

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 |

+-------+------+----------------------------+---------------+
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.
