| Name of the Software |
OPM |
| Short Description |
OPM coordinates collaborative software
development, maintains and distributes open-source software and open
data sets, and seeks to ensure that these are available under a free
license in a long-term perspective.
Current development is focused on reservoir simulation, in particular
enhanced oil recovery and CO2 sequestration, but contributions aimed at
different scientific or industrial fields are welcome.
There following are the main OPM software offerings:
- Flow is a reservoir simulator for three-phase black-oil problems
using a fully-implicit formulation. There are also specialized variants
for solvent and polymer problems. Flow can read and write standard
industry formats.
- Various programs for flow-based permeability upscaling, as well as
upscaling of relative permeability and capillary curves using a
steady-state approach.
- ResInsight is an easy-to use and fast visualization tool for reservoir simulation.
