RESULTS is a Windows based software application for viewing the output from CMG’s reservoir simulators. With Results you can visualize input data and output model results in a variety of graphs, tabular reports, 2D/3D map views, 2D/3D cross section views and full 3D stereographic per-spective views. Simulation output can be animated with time to highlight important processes, and Results can be used to monitor the progress of lengthy simulation runs in real time. The main components of Results are:
RESULTS 3Dis used to produce complete two-dimensional (2D), three-dimensional (3D), and stereographic 3D views of a reservoir. Results 3D will display any of the grid block properties such as pressure, and oil, water, and gas saturation, as output by the reservoir simulator. Users can select the cross-section and plane number to display in 2D/3D and produce “cut-away” views in 3D mode. You can also select from the different simulation times output, or animate through all the times. Displays can be printed by any Windows compatible printer or plotter, and on any of the paper sizes supported by the printer or plotter. Displayed images can also be translated into bitmaps, JPEG, and AVI movie fi les, and imported into most popular presentation and word processing software applications.
RESULTS GRAPHis used to produce XY plots of well production and other similar quantities, and can be used to compare various simulation outputs with historical fi eld production. Plots can be updated automatically during the simulation process. Users can also control the number of plots per page and the number of curves per plot. The template feature in Results can be used to design a customized graph which can be applied automatically to all output wells, enabling the user to generate graphs for the whole fi eld very easily.
Since Results is entirely Microsoft Offi ce compatible output displays can be easily exported to word processing and presentation packages, enabling the user to construct reports in a matter of minutes.
RESULTS is a state-of-the-art 3D post-processing package for CMG’s simulators allowing rapid analysis and evaluation of simulation results. RESULTS also makes report writing and generation easy by simple copy-and-paste operations into the Microsoft Offi ce environment. Some features of note are:
• Full 3D model manipulation.• Theatre, room, or screen sized immersive 3D visualization to aid model
understanding.• Complete integration of production and property profi le plotting with the
3D environment.• Easy template creation and user defi nable preferences.• Repeat plot facility for wells and groups to rapidly generate plots
for analysis• Bubble plots of production volumes, and historical data comparison
error, for aiding history matching.• Logical calculator for data manipulation, allowing differences between
runs to be calculated and plotted.• Isosurfaces can be used to track fl uid fronts through the reservoir.• 3D streamline display and well allocation factors.• Output can be easily read into economic analysis packages such
as PEEP• Integrated with the Microsoft Offi ce environment.• AVI fi le creation for generating movies for partners who
do not have software
