KAPPA_5.10_Workstation_download

KAPPA_5.10_Workstation_download

Permanent Downhole Gauges (PDG) are a remarkable source of information of both long term production data and the capture of occasional buildups that may be described as ‘free well tests’. Data are acquired at high frequency and over a long duration. The down side is the large number of data points gathered, which can amount to hundreds of millions per sensor which is far beyond the processing capability of today’s fastest PC. There are a number of challenges: storing and accessing the raw data, filtering, transferring this to the relevant analysis module and finally sharing both filtered data and analyses.

KAPPA Server is a client-server solution for PDG reservoir surveillance that addresses these issues in a shared environment. It permanently mirrors raw data from any data historian, reduces the number of points with wavelet-based filtering, stores and shares the filtered data. Filtered data can be exported to third party databases.

High frequency data (PDG)

Time-lapse data with measures recorded every 1 – 30 second intervals can be considered as high frequency data (pressure, temperature, flowmeter rates) and usually are stored in the company’s data historian. Using a preconfigured data link an user can browse the list of available tags (gauges, data sets) in the historian and select the required ones to be mirrored into KAPPA Server.
Mirroring involves copying the data tag from the historian into a gauge item in KAPPA Server. Once this is done the gauge item is kept updated by an internal process that checks for additional data and mirrors them.

DNV-Sesam-2011-tutorials

Sesam GeniE is a tool for designing and analyzing offshore and maritime structures made of beams and plates. Modelling, analysis and results processing are performed in the same graphical user interface. The use of concept technology makes Sesam GeniE highly efficient for integrating stability, loading, strength assessment and CAD exchange. All data are persistent enabling the engineers to do efficient iterative re-design of a structure. Sesam GeniE for fixed structures The analysis – hydrodynamic as well as strength calculations – and evaluation of results are done within GeniE. GeniE is built for frequent changes in both structural and equipment layout – any modification performed on a concept level will give an automatic updated and consistent analysis model.
For fixed platforms, GeniE can perform static and dynamic linear analysis for structures subjected to wave, wind, current and the equipment layout. It is also possible to include the effects from non-linear pile/soil behaviour. Code compliance of beams may be performed according to API/AISC, API/LRFD, Norsok/Eurocode or ISO (19902). The results may be reported graphically or by using standard report layouts that can be customized (supporting MS Office). Similarly, for plated structures (stiffened as well as un-stiffened) they may be checked against codes like DNV (RP C201.1) and API(2U). Sesam HydroD is a tool for hydrostatic and hydrodynamic analysis. By integrating these tasks significant cost savings may be achieved in the engineering phase since the same panel model may be used by one tool. Sesam HydroD will perform compliance checks against statutory rules for stability including the importance of integrity of the deck tanks. Floating positions may be determined as a result of actual mass and buoyancy or from an automatic compartment filling to satisfy specified position. Hydrodynamic analysis The hydrodynamic analysis may be performed using the actual floating position – and independent of the panel model – to determine worst loading conditions to be used in structural strength analysis. These analyses are normally performed in the frequency domain, but it is also possible to do it in time domain (Linear as well as non-linear). The loads (pressure and accelerations) are automatically used by the structural analysis. The response and loads may be graphically assessed in animations. Sesam DeepC is a tool for mooring and riser design as well marine operations of offshore floating structures. It will perform mooring analysis separately or when including the coupled effects from risers and vessels. Furthermore, Sesam DeepC may be used for riser design where the risers are analyzed separately or when considering coupling effects. Marine operations may be simulated in the time domain for a study of motions and station keeping of multibody systems. For deep water installations, the riser and mooring systems greatly influence the motions of the floater. The floater and slender structures constitute an integrated dynamic system responding to the environmental loading. Because coupling effects are consistently treated, there is no need for the engineers to make assumptions about the damping level (updated for each time step) which is crucial in a non-linear analysis accounting for slender structure restoring, damping and inertia forces. In other words, Sesam DeepC will increase the confidence level of riser and mooring analysis.

Kappa_ Ecrin_v4.205_crack

One of the main areas of development has been unconventional resources, in particular shale gas, with additional diagnostic tools in Topaze NL, specifically adapted internal analytical models in Saphir NL and Topaze NL, and substantially enhanced numerical models in Saphir NL, Topaze NL and Rubis. Kappa_ Ecrin_v4.205 Other improvements include slug test and minifrac analysis in Saphir NL, additional analysis tools in Topaze NL, an improved Rubis sector to PTA where the dynamic state of the simulation is transferred to Saphir NL and a prediction of future IPR’s in Amethyste that is now a free add-on to other Ecrin modules. Two new additional modules, as yet non-commercial, for thermal modeling and surface networks have been included for evaluation.
Substantial work was done on the numerical model, especially for the modeling of unconventional resources. Intermediate 3D local grid refinement has been created to account for vertical flow in Topaze NL without the detail of the transient analysis grid. The gridding is not only adjusted to the flow geometry, but also to the reservoir diffusivity, providing superfine grids for extremely low permeability. Fractured horizontal wells now include limited entry fractures. For unconsolidated formations there is individual control of matrix and fracture pressure dependence. On the analytical side, Saphir NL and Topaze NL now integrate a comprehensive internal model for multiple fracture horizontal wells, including enhanced features such as a global fracture angle and composite zones. In the multilayer models, vertical crossflow can now be modeled with a leakage factor or a thin interface layer. Minifrac analysis has been added in Saphir NL. This includes G-function, square root plot and the After Closure Analysis (ACA) plot. Slug / pulse test analysis has been added, allowing the initial DST slugs to be analysed. Perrine’s method has been improved to handle multiphase analyses (Kamal et al.). Deconvolution is enhanced by adding a material balance correction (Levitan et al.). In Rubis the extraction of a sector for pressure transient analysis now sends to Saphir NL the exact dynamic state of the simulation at the time of the extraction. It is no longer necessary to create a different initial state in Saphir NL. Direct import from Geomodelers now include net-to-gross ratio, and the volume averaging interpolation method has been modified to improve the property mapping between the imported grid and the Rubis cells. Finally, unconsolidation has been extended from Saphir NL and Topaze NL to Rubis. In Topaze NL new specialized plots have been added, including the square root and power law loss ratio plots for unconventional formations. Specialized lines on the loglog plot, already in Saphir NL, are now also available in Topaze NL. New corrections and display capabilities have been added to existing specialized plots, in particular to the p/Z plots. Amethyste is now a free add-on of Saphir NL, Topaze NL, Rubis and Emeraude licenses under active maintenance according to our current price list. The main development here is the prediction of future IPR. Also new to v4.20, on an experimental basis and for evaluation purpose only, is a first version of a thermal model and a surface network. These are noncommercial. In the future they may be removed or packaged in additional Ecrin modules… Not detailed here are more than forty additional improvements, most of them coming from the requests of our user groups. Among them, the Span & Wagner EOS for pure CO2, a faster USB protection key, RAM monitoring, an XML section in the Ecrin files allowing the direct reading of the main results from third party software, preconfiguring our coming OpenServer.

CMG-2011-CMG-Technologies-Lanncher

MG (Computer Modelling Group Ltd.) is a computer software engineering and consulting firm engaged in the development, sale and technology transfer of reservoir simulation software. CMG began as a company known for its expertise in heavy oil, and expanded its expertise into all aspects of reservoir flow modelling. Over the past 32 years, CMG has remained focused on the development and delivery of reservoir simulation technologies that assist oil and gas companies to determine reservoir capacities and maximize potential recovery. To this end, we are continually improving our market-leading line of reservoir simulation technologies to better reflect the changing needs of our users. CMG is a world-class software company traded on the TSX Stock Exchange under the symbol CMG. With over 400 oil and gas companies and consulting firms in more than 50 countries, CMG is one of the largest independent providers of reservoir simulation software in the world. CMOST is the latest product offering in the CMG software suite. It is a state-of-the-art reservoir engineering optimization tool, employing innovative experimental design, sampling and optimization techniques to efficiently determine the reservoir parameters which define the production and ultimate recovery of oil and gas fields. CMG’s Builder creates the base-case reservoir model as the first step in the process. CMOST generates simulation runs automatically from the base model, then submits and analyzes the runs that are created from a range of values for multiple reservoir parameters specified by the engineer. CMOST learns which values produce the best results enabling it to dramatically reduce the number of runs required to find the optimal solution. This is the fastest technique for an accurate history match(es) and reliable production forecasts. CMOST improves the effectiveness of each reservoir engineer by eliminating the tedious labor of individual case generation for hundreds of scenarios. It allows them to focus on the high value effort of interpretation and evaluation of results. CMOST’s power lies in modern experimental design and optimization algorithms which vary multiple parameters simultaneously to find the optimal solution – something a human cannot do. CMOST dispatches to a cluster of computers or a single computer and interprets the results of numerous runs, terminates non-physical solutions and narrows the search space rapidly to reach not just local maximums or minimums, but the ultimate best case. Solutions to reservoir models with trillions of possible combinations and permutations can often be found in fewer than 1000 runs. CMOST helps engineers create more accurate models in dramatically less time and allows asset managers to have a greater degree of confidence in the forecasts, multiplying the team’s effectiveness many fold.

Ultimately, the PanSystem application provides a way to simplify complex transient well testing through detailed analysis, simulation and reporting. PanSystem software is dedicated to transient well testing, a key technical function in the oil and gas industry. A pressure transient well test has the unique capability to obtain information from within the reservoir surrounding the well and, with appropriate testing and analysis techniques, can provide a wealth of data: • Permeability of the reservoir-at-large and, in some cases, the near- wellbore region • Completion effciency, effective open interval size (over the life of the well) • Reservoir structure (boundaries, heterogeneities) • Reservoir pressure • Nature of any pressure support • Drainage area, connected pore volume, and initial hydrocarbons in place • Vertical permeability, vertical communication in layered systems • Well performance (over the life of the well) • Communication between wells • Deliverability and production forecasts Typical applications © 2010-2011 Weatherford. All rights reserved. PanSystem® Well-Test Analysis Software 3 The task of designing, executing and analyzing a well test depends on operating conditions as well as completion and reservoir type. PanSystem software analyzes a wide range of situations and asset types. • Low-pressure reservoirs, heavy oil: Wellbore fll-up and leak-off tests, steam-injection tests • Pumping wells: Acoustically derived pressures and rates • Medium oil reservoirs: Conventional drawdown and buildup tests • Gas wells: Conventional analysis using real gas pseudo-pressure, turbulent skin analysis for high-rate wells, and gas well deliverability by empirical (C-and-n) and LIT methods. (In depletion scenarios, gas properties are revised as reservoir pressure declines.) • Volatile oil/condensate reservoirs: Conventional analysis techniques or use of multiphase pseudo- pressure to model phase behavior and its effect on relative permeability (in particular, liquid dropout or gas breakout around wellbore) • Hydrothermal wells: Steam production, water injection • Gas- and water-injection wells: Injection and falloff tests, including multiregion analysis to enable mobile phase changes and temperature effects • Interference tests: Inter-well permeability and ΦCt product from type-curve analysis and/or history matching by simulation • Multilayered reservoirs: Conventional analysis or specialized testing technique (MLT) using selective fowmeter data • Varying rate tests: Rates measured on surface or with a downhole fowmeter • Permanent downhole (or surface) gauges: Special pressure decline analysis (PDA) section to analyze long-term pressure and rate records for hydrocarbons in place; deconvolution to reveal nature of the reservoir and boundary models otherwise obscured by rate changes and shut-ins • Wireline formation tests: Analysis of pre-test, pump-out, mini-DST, and vertical interference tests using dual- and packer-probe analytical models (including special LAS and DPK format data import) From large-scale reservoir characterization to monitoring of individual well performance, PanSystem’s well- test analysis provides information for many important operational decisions. • Workover: Completion effciency from skin factor and early time derivative shape; open interval length for stimulation or reperforation; fracture quality • Reservoir characterization: Horizontal permeability (from kh ); vertical permeability; boundaries and heterogeneities; gas cap/aquifer support; pressure support from a second compartment; layering for reservoir model refnement and feld-development planning • Reserves estimation: Extended production test; long- term fowing pressure record (with permanent downhole gauge); buildup testing for reservoir model refnement and feld-development planning • Production performance prediction: Single well forward prediction with material balance included for feld-development planning • Reservoir pressure decline: for feld-developmen

CAESAR II 2010_V5.3


CAESAR II is the Pipe Stress Analysis standard against which all others are measured and compared. The CAESAR II spreadsheet input technique revolutionized the way piping models are built, modified, and verified. CAESAR II was the first pipe stress program specifically designed for the PC environment. The interactive capabilities permit rapid evaluation of both input and output, thereby melding seamlessly into the "design - analyze" iteration cycle.

CAESAR II incorporates a wide range of capabilities, from numerous piping codes, to expansion joint, valve & flange and structural data bases, to structural and buried pipe modeling, to equipment and vessel nozzle evaluation, to spectrum and time history analysis. Most of the features of CAESAR II are available at a keystroke, but at the same time are not imposed upon the analyst.

A menu driven scroll and select interface provides logical options when and where expected. Context sensitive help provides instant technical assistance for each data field, with expected units. Data values presented in the help screens are automatically presented in the current set of units to aid input.

The customization options of CAESAR II have been driven by user requests, code changes, and the need to benchmark older, existing systems and their initial design. Many of these customization options enable newer analysis techniques appearing in current literature.

As with all COADE products, CAESAR II is continuously maintained and improved by the engineering staff. The engineering staff of COADE have worked in industry, for engineering and consulting firms. This experience not only guides program development, but provides users with knowledgeable support. This allows CAESAR II to work the way a typical engineer thinks and solves a problem. This also means that the technical support provided to users by the engineering staff is almost instantaneous. Users talk straight to the developers, insuring an accurate and timely answer.

Program revisions incorporate additional capabilities addressing both technical and operational items. Users are encouraged to suggest improvements which help their day to day usage of the software. See the enhancement list for details of capabilities added for each release of the CAESAR II program.

Whether you are a one-man consulting company or a large corporation, if you are looking for a piping analysis program, CAESAR II is the best solution available - period.

CMG-2009.10

SIMULATOR CHANGES

Geomechanics Coupling
One- and two-way (explicit as well as iterative) coupling with CMG’s
Geomechanics module has been implemented into GEM and is being
released as a Beta feature.
The geomechanics module handles different constitutive models like,
linear and non-linear elastic, generalized plasticity, elasto-plastic, single
surface, and creep models. For the elasto-plastic model the yield criteria
can be specified via Mohr-Columb or Drucker-Prager that are suitable
for the description of geologic material. There is also an isotropic strain
hardening and softening option. The behavior of cyclic loading and
unloading that occurs during cyclical injection and production can be
modeled. A cap model is also available for yield criteria of elasto-plastic
material. For Non-linear elasticity, hypoelastic and hyperelastic
constitutive models are available. Associated or non-associated flow
rules can be used for Mohr-Columb, Drucker-Prager, single surface, or
generalized plasticity models.
The above constitutive models can be used in 2D or 3D problems in the
Cartesian, corner-point, or axissymmetric grid. Finite element method is
used in the geomechanics module to compute the geomechanical
responses. The user can specify a variety of boundary conditions in 2D
and 3D on nodal points of the finite element.
The geomechanics module solves for the force equilibrium of the
formation and calculates volumetric dilation/compression as a result of
both elastic and plastic straining.
The coupling options allow porosity to be optionally dependent on
deformation. It can be a function of pressure temperature or volumetric
strain; or a function of pressure temperature and total mean stress.
The change in matrix and fracture permeability due to geomechanical
effects can be computed by a number of algorithms including the ones by
Li and Chalaturnyk; and Barton-Bandis.
A large number of possible geomechanics responses are available for
viewing in CMG’s graphical post processor “Results”, and also available


- 6 -




to the text “.out” and “.geo” files. The user can view grids in “Results”
that deform with time, but there are some restrictions for displaying 2D
radial grids.
A new data section GEOMECHANICS has been added which precedes
WELLS AND RECURRENT DATA section in the GEM input data file
to facilitate entry of geomechanics related keywords. Please see the
chapter on geomechanical features for specific keywords.
The coupled geomechanic modeling may be useful for a variety of
situations, like determination of leakage through points of weakness in
the cap rock during GHG sequestration, effect of rock deformation and
porosity change during CBM/ECBM simulation, solid deposition in
asphaltene modeling, and mineral dissolution and precipitation during
geochemical processes, and others.

Improved Parallel Performance
A new method has been implemented for parallel equation and residual
building using a method of domain decomposition based on Parasol
classes. This method is expected to give better scalability on computers
with larger number of processors.
The method is activated by using *JACPAR *ON in the Numerical
Methods section, or by specifying –jacpar on the command line. In order
to use *JACPAR, the parallel computing licensing feature must be
active.

Oil-Wet Rock-Fluid Model
The oil-wet rock fluid model modifies both the initialization and flow
calculations in GEM. See the OILWET subkeyword of the RPT keyword
for details.
The oil wet option initialization assumes that the reservoir was initially
water wet and has undergone a wettability alteration to become an oil
wet reservoir. This assumption has a significant impact on how fluids are
placed during reservoir initialization.
In the oil wet model, three phase flow is calculated assuming water is the
intermediate phase. Therefore Kro is a function of oil saturation, Krg is a
function of gas saturation, while Krw is a function of both oil and gas
saturation (through Krwo and Krwg). The normal three phase flow
models (e.g. Stone 1, Stone 2, segregated, etc) are used to determine
water relative permeability, not oil permeability.
