Dear developers, We have done a terrific effort improving the OPM codes the last year, we all deserve a tap on the shoulder. On the reservoir simulation part it seems like we are ready to take on the next big challenge. Namely, demonstrating that we can replace an industry reservoir simulator on one full field model effectively. The Norne case seems most relevant for many reasons. The most prominent being: it is available to academia, several of us are already familiar with it, it converges relatively easily and simulation time is low, it is about as standard as it gets (i.e., few perks and hacks).
I believe we should have the following design goals (please add if you miss some): -All physics present in the full field model should be accounted for (e.g., fully implicit black oil and well models with relevant input accounted for in the simulations) -We need to be able to parse the data and include files, and feed them to the simulator without user intervention -We need to produce relevant grid and summary output for 3D visualization and 2D production data without user intervention -We need to be within striking distance performance wise. I believe three times slower than relevant industry simulator is acceptable here. You will find pointers to the Norne model here: http://www.ipt.ntnu.no/~norne/wiki/doku.php?id=start What do you guys think, is this something we can achieve by Christmas?
