Streamline Reservoir Flow Simulation
Our streamline-based software give engineers a powerful, single entry point to our novel engineering workflows for flood management. Use our 4-stage simple-to-complex approach to manage and optimize mature floods:
Reservoir Surveillance - Compute streamline-based allocation factors to understand your well-pairs. Surveillance models are computationally light, quick to build, and they yield relevant well-pair information. Go beyond the classic geometric fix pattern allocation method. Then use floodOPT to compute new well rate targets for the upcoming month.
Reservoir Flow Simulation - The efficiency of streamlines and multi-core hardware make 1000-well floods, complex miscible injection scenarios, polymer flooding, million cell geo-models, or long production histories manageable.
History Matching - Go beyond field matches. Using unique sl-based technology, match large floods on a well-by-well basis in a geologically consistent manner.
Reservoir Sweep Optimization - Use 3DSL and floodOPT on your history-matched reservoir model to re-balance patterns which promote good sweep and reduce fluid cycling all via new well-rate targets.
studioSL is Streamsim's Java-based interface to build and run 3DSL input decks, run floodOPT, and implement our SL-based history matching workflow. Read about using studioSL as a common RE platform here.
3DSL is Streamsim's 3D, 3-phase streamline flow simulator. See 3DSL's performance on multi-core hardware.
floodOPT is part of a streamline-based workflow to assist in flood management via well rate re-balancing.
SL-Based History Matching implements a workflow for well-level history matching through model updates in a geologically consistent manner.
Tutorials useful web tutorials on a number of workflows in studioSL related to 3DSL.
Streamsim Technologies, Inc. was founded in 1997 following a five-year research period on streamline-based flow simulation at Stanford University. Our goals are to maintain the best streamline simulator in the industry, educate the industry on streamline technology, and develop novel engineering workflows that exploit the advantages of streamlines.
