Emerson launches new reservoir modelling software

Industry

Emerson Process Management has launched a new version of its reservoir modelling software Roxar RMS

The new RMS 2013.1 includes improved structural modelling tools which the company said acknowledge realistic uncertainties in the data and enhance volumetric sensitivities, making it quicker and easier to build geological scenarios, investigate the full effects of structural uncertainty, and maximize the value of reservoir assets.

“With our new version of Roxar RMS and our tightly integrated structural modelling and gridding tools, users will be able to quantify uncertainty more effectively and increase confidence when it comes to crucial decisions on where to drill, what production strategies to adopt, and how to maximize recovery,” said Kjetil Fagervik, managing director of Emerson’s Roxar Software Solutions.

Emerson have also further integrated fault uncertainty tools in RMS 2013.1 with structural modelling and 3D gridding, enabling users to build fault uncertainty models in full and investigate a wide variety of scenarios corresponding to the uncertainty in the input data.

The horizon uncertainty modelling is also significantly enhanced, according to the company, allowing users to create horizons and zones based on uncertainty data and information derived from well picks, velocities, seismic travel times and isochores.
