Reservoir simulation models are by their nature integrated models as they consolidate interpretation and modelling from many disciplines. They are widely used tools for reservoir management, helping answer a wide range of key questions such as "How much reserves are remaining?", "Where is the best location for the next well?", and "How long can we maintain the plateau?".
But they are often also extremely complex, with dozens and sometimes hundreds of parameters representing reservoir behaviour, all of which have a degree of uncertainty associated with them. As a result they almost always give multiple solutions to any question posed of them. Engineers using manual workflows usually only find one solution, but a range of solutions can give considerably more information about the range of possible scenarios that may exist in reality.
Finding the range of solutions and the best solution is what we call reservoir optimisation. MEPO is the leading reservoir optimisation software on the market today, and complements your existing reservoir simulation model by helping you find the optimal solution to your reservoir engineering questions. As shows below, it can give you better solutions whatever stage of the reservoir lifecycle you are in. |
"BG has chosen MEPO as the best software to launch uncertainty-based reservoir modelling workflows across the group. We wanted a single ‘end-to-end’ tool to implement these new workflows, and have been very pleased with the impact it has had on our business."
