Emerson Process Management has announced the launch of Roxar RMS 2010, the latest release of the reservoir modelling system RMS™ which comes with major improvements across the entire workflow.

Within the Roxar modelling suite, users can build models for any reservoir. They can also estimate reserves, plan wells and simulate past and future production. In this way, they can do everything they need to produce maximum performance from their reservoirs, regardless of geology, location or complexity.

Key features of RMS 2010 include:

  • The new well correlation system makes well picking and tracking the geology simpler, faster and more adaptable, thereby providing a smooth start to the modelling workflow
  • The enhanced structural modelling tool comes with an improved workflow for well correlation, isochore generation and horizon modelling (structural modelling in RMS is easy-to-use and has all the functionality needed for generating high quality models for any reservoir – from the simplest to the most complicated)
  • The RMS 3D gridder has been made even more robust with the result far closer to geological reality than previous techniques have managed
  • The market leading property modelling tools in RMS have also been further extended in RMS 2010 to include multipoint statistics and improved methods for combining seismic interpretations with the advanced modelling algorithms in RMS to achieve unique data-matched models

“Today’s release is about one key goal, making RMS 2010 the best decision-making tool in reservoir management,” said Ordin Husa, managing director of Roxar Software Solutions. “I believe we have achieved this, creating an even more intuitive and high performance modelling workflow. RMS 2010 not only provides increased accessibility to users of all skills levels, but also has the correlation, modelling and gridding capabilities to handle all types of geologies.”

Roxar’s flagship reservoir modelling solution, RMS comprises 13 fully integrated software modules, including mapping, reservoir modelling, well planning, reservoir simulation and uncertainty modelling tools. RMS 2010 will continue to operate on Linux 64-bit, Windows XP and the Vista 32 and 64-bit platforms, as well as Windows 7 64-bit.
