Roxar RMS 2013.0 Build 173741 by vandit



Emerson Process Management has released the latest version of its Roxar RMS 2013 reservoir modeling software. RMS 2013 features model driven interpretation capabilities and new, innovative solutions for seismic interpretation that are tightly linked to geological model building and are designed to provide users with a full seismic to simulation workflow.


RMS 2013??s model driven interpretation is designed to enable users to not only create the geological model while conducting seismic interpretation, but also capture uncertainty during the interpretation. This ability to provide users with unique tools for quantifying geologic risk early in the interpretation process will lead to better decision-making and improved investment returns.

Key benefits of RMS 2013 include that rather than creating one model with thousands of individual measurements, with RMS 2013 modelers create thousands of models by estimating uncertainty in their interpretations. The software then generates statistically significant ensembles of models based on these probability distributions providing immediate value to the geoscientist. For example, uncertainty maps can be used to investigate key risks in the prospect or areas can be quickly identified for further study. By capturing uncertainty at the beginning of the geoscience workflow, operators gain the best possible picture of their subsurface risks.

Another benefit is that instead of a serial workflow for interpretation and geomodeling, model driven interpretation allows geoscientists to guide and update a 3D geologically consistent structural model directly from the data. This allows clients to focus their efforts directly on where the model needs more detail and on challenging and complex geometries so common in reservoirs today. Model driven interpretation also provides a platform for cross-disciplinary interactions. Geophysicists, with a strong understanding of the complexities of the seismic data, can work together with geologists and their understanding of lithologies and facies.

RMS 2013 also brings new tools to market for analyzing the full range of structural uncertainties. Geoscientists can create suites of model realisations that satisfy many external constraints - from well picks and zone logs to velocity uncertainty and horizon or fault positional uncertainty. These model realisations also allow operators to sample and quantify uncertainty in their subsurface parameters further down the value chain.

Emerson??s flagship reservoir modeling solution, Roxar RMS is comprised of more than 20 fully integrated software modules, including seismic interpretation, structural model building, 3D gridding, facies and petrophysical modeling, flow simulation, well planning and uncertainty modeling tools.
