Release Details
ECLIPSE software covers the entire spectrum of reservoir simulation, specializing in blackoil, compositional and thermal volume-difference reservoir simulation, and streamline reservoir simulation.
This release extends the functionality of the ECLIPSE blackoil simulator, the ECLIPSE compositional simulator and the FrontSim streamline simulator. A key theme is the modeling of chemical EOR processes such as an extension of the Polymer option in ECLIPSE blackoil and the addition of a surfactant model to ECLIPSE compositional. In addition, the release continues to develop integrated workflows with Petrel Reservoir Engineering and fix known issues from previous releases.
MEPO 4.2 will be included in this release and will be provided as part of the DVD/Download.
MEPO is a multiple realization optimization framework which submits and controls reservoir simulation models. Reservoir engineers can use this to optimize and semi-automate their simulation workflows. The most common applications are assisted history matching, uncertainty analysis, sensitivity studies and optimizing field development plans.
NOTES
The interactive pre- and post-processors in the ECLIPSE Suite are supported on Windows only and are under maintenance limited to critical bug fixes. The preferred application for pre- and post-processing, providing superior functionality, is Petrel Reservoir Engineering.
Not all applications in the software package support Linux. The EPP software is now only supported on Windows (ECLIPSE Office, FloGrid, FloViz, Schedule)
For this release the IBM ppc64 versions of the simulators have not been included on the standard DVD and a separate disk must be requested, if required.
