We are proud to announce the release of RF-DAP 2024.2. The latest version brings several enhancements, features, and bug fixes to improve user experience, including new capabilities for Catalogue, Special Core Analysis Simulator (SCAS), Fluid Analysis and Simulation Environment (FASE) and Simulation of Thermodynamic Electrolyte Partitioning and Speciation (STEPS) modules.
In RF-DAP 2024.2, SCAS is now available as a standalone application. Additionally, a new layout for Manual History Matching (HM) has been introduced. This updated layout enables users to adjust the simulation setup for relative permeability (Kr) and capillary pressure (Pc) models while simultaneously visualizing the respective curves and comparing the simulation results with experimental data in an interactive, user-friendly interface. Moreover, users can now use SCAS independently of the Catalogue database, allowing them to directly input core flooding experimental data and run HM simulations with SCAS Standalone.
In the FASE module, a new export screen is now available. Users can export PVT tables to OLGA, LEDA Flow, ALFASim (.tab), and Eclipse Black-Oil. We’ve also enhanced our lumping algorithm to support a variety of fluid compositions and improved our calculations of water properties by using the IAPWS industrial formulation from 2008, which now considers water salinity.
The Thermoddem database is now integrated into STEPS, supporting Ideal, Pitzer, Phreeqc, and HKF activity models. Density calculations have been enhanced for the E-Uniquac activity model, and STEPS now uses HKF as a fallback model for molar volume calculations.
In Catalogue, bugs related to the rock sample search bar and the results for the Differential Liberation (DL) experiment were fixed. In FASE, the separator experiment simulation for gas samples was improved.
In FASE, the bug affecting the deletion of PVT simulation results without experimental data was fixed. In STEPS, the issue related to the use of ChemicalProps in equilibrium calculations with Reaktoro’s new version was resolved.
We are committed to providing the best possible experience for our users, and your feedback is fundamental in helping us achieve that goal. If you encounter any issues or have suggestions for improvements, contact our experts today.
