PetroBench: A Benchmark for Large Language Models in Petroleum Engineering 文章

arXiv:2605.28032v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models are increasingly applied in the petroleum industry, highlighting the need for a domain-specific evaluation framework. This study develops a benchmark for LLMs in petroleum engineering, including a three-stage process of data preprocessing, quality filtering, and multi-model validation. Using expert review, a standardized question bank with strong domain relevance and discriminative capability was constructed. The benchmark covers production, reservoir, and drilling engineering, with 1,200 questions across multiple-choice, true or false, term definition, and short-answer formats. Eight mainstream LLMs were evaluated under a unified API environment. Results show that models performed better on subjective than objective questions, indicating weaknesses in factual knowledge discrimination. The highest accuracies for multiple-choice and true or false questions were 65.3% and 74.3%, respectively. Gemini-3-Pro, Kimi-K2.
