Geovariances announces the release of Isatis 2013, the new version of its software known in the Mining and Oil & Gas industries as the most complete solutions in Geostatistics. Isatis 2013 facilitates software usage by offering integrated workflows guiding the user directly to the expected results. It also facilitates data exchange with its new acQuire® direct link. Several workflows have thus been made available in Isatis 2013 to provide guidelines for standard geostatistical processing such as kriging, stochastic simulations and uniform conditioning. The user can also build and save its own workflows which help him to save time in further similar studies. “Using Isatis, you can do nearly everything you want; you can build your workspace from A to Z.”...

SPT Group releases a new version of OLGA Advanced Blowout Control. Since its first release in 2009, OLGA Advanced Blowout Control has been used for operational decision support in many renowned well control incidents – and frequently to produce contingency plans for wells in general. The solution has provided drilling engineers and well control specialist with a powerful, accurate and reliable tool to analyze and plan dynamic kill and relief well operations. The increased focus on well control has given us valuable input from our customers upon which we base development of an even better and more powerful tool. The OLGA Advanced Blowout Control tool still provides a unique combination of the Drillbench graphical user interface and the powerful OLGA...

Sulsim simulates sulphur recovery units (SRUs) as individual cases. Each case is composed of one or more trains of sulphur process units, unified by a process pipe. Inlet gas streams enter the process from a train source and optional inlet stream source units. The process flowsheet, which schematically displays the SRU structure, is a line or three-dimensional drawing created in the case window using process building tools. The type of operations that can be performed on the flowsheet depends upon the current operation mode selected by the user. Access to the tools required to add, remove and position process units on the flowsheet are available to the user when in build mode. External gas streams and internal bypasses of materials...

Previously the installation instructions were included as part of the TANK User\’s Guide. You can access the Installation Guide in .pdf format from the TANK Installation splash screen...

The AMSIM software is a specialized process program that simulates the removal of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), carbon dioxide (CO2), and mercaptans from natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) streams, using amines and physical solvents. This software is backed by more than 20 years of laboratory data. By applying a rigorous non-equilibrium stage model and the Peng-Robinson equation-of-state, the AMSIM simulator provides simple, reliable, and efficient solutions including investigation of alternative process configurations and contacting solvents. This simulator also analyzes the sensitivity of the key operating parameters and provides a diagnostic optimization of gas and LPG sweetening units. The simulator also predicts acid gas removal over a full range of inlet conditions, process configurations, solvent types, and concentrations. The software...

Fracpro is the most widely used fracture design modeling software in the world. This powerful tool has the flexibility to handle the tremendous variability of reservoirs, fracturing equipment, materials and procedures. The software can effectively model any type of pressure stimulation job, including limited entry wells, multiple perforated intervals and horizontal well fracturing. It includes data for formation permeability and reservoir pressure analysis. With Fracpro, you can effectively model fracture growth in any formation: carbonate, sandstone and even coal. FracproPT Software ScreenFracpro even incorporates the effects of proppant damage due to crushing, embedment, stress-cycling, non-Darcy and multi-phase flow. Automated minifrac, step-rate analysis, entry friction, net pressure and production history matching routines are built into the main program. Fracpro offers a...

PetroMod petroleum systems modeling software combines seismic, well, and geological information to model the evolution of a sedimentary basin. The software predicts if, and how, a reservoir has been charged with hydrocarbons, including the source and timing of hydrocarbon generation, migration routes, quantities, and hydrocarbon type in the subsurface or at surface conditions. Large-scale geologic petroleum systems models (1D, 2D, or 3D) cover areas ranging from a single charge area for a prospect to regional studies of entire basins to multibasin resource assessments. The models are dynamic, which means they provide a complete record of the structural evolution, temperature, and pressure history, as well as the effects on generation, migration, accumulation, and loss of oil and gas in a petroleum...

The new technology deployment is the result of a joint effort between Koch-Glitsch and SimSci-Esscor to address several user-requested enhancements and improvements. The RATEFRAC rate-based distillation design software will now be licensed on an exclusive basis as an integrated module within the PRO/II software (Version 7.1 and higher). Additionally, KG-TOWER® design software will be available as an integrated module within PRO/II at no additional cost. The arrangement supersedes Koch-Glitsch’s prior partnership with Aspen Technology. The RATEFRAC module in PRO/II is a rigorous rate-based distillation module suitable for applications where the approach to equilibrium is limited by heat and mass transfer rates. With new packing methods and improved convergence, the RATEFRAC module enables users to rigorously model the mass transfer and...
