- 4. CMG component 4 LAUNCHER = File Management & Job Scheduling BUILDER = Simulation Model Creation/Editing WINPROP = PVT Phase Behavior Characterization IMEX = 3-phase, 4-components Black Oil Simulator GEM = 3-phase, n-component EOS Compositional Simulator STARS = 4-phase, n-component Thermal/CEOR Simulator CMOST = History Matching, Optimization, Sensitivity & Uncertainty Analysis COFLOW= Integrated Production & Reservoir Simulation RESULTS = X-Y Plots, Grid Visualization & Data Extraction https://acpi.ir/
- 5. CMG component 5 Generalized Equation-of-State Model Reservoir Simulator (GEM) • GEM is a full equation-of-state compositional reservoir simulator with advanced features for modelling recovery processes where the fluid composition affects recovery. • GEM also models asphaltenes, coal bed methane and the geochemistry of the sequestration of various gases including acid Gases and CO2. IMplicit-EXplicit Black Oil Simulator (IMEX) • IMEX is a full -featured three-phase, four-component black oil reservoir simulator for modelling primary depletion and secondary recovery processes in conventional oil and gas reservoirs. • IMEX also models pseudo-miscible and polymer injection in conventional oil reservoirs, and primary depletion of gas condensate reservoirs, as well as the behavior of naturally or hydraulically fractured reservoirs. Steam, Thermal and Advanced processes Reservoir Simulator (STARS) • STARS is a thermal, K-value compositional, chemical reaction and geomechanics reservoir simulator ideally suited for advanced modelling of recovery processes involving the injection of steam, solvents, air and chemicals. https://acpi.ir/
