The IRAP RMS Suite is a software toolkit for geomodelling and designing reservoirs. It is primarily designed for use in the oilfield industry, primarily helping engineers gather data from a wide variety of sources to efficiently build reliable reservoirs. In IRAP RMS, the workflow consists of Internal Programming Language scripts, which execute emulations of certain models, varying one parameter, whilst keeping the rest consistent.
History
- 1987 - Geomatic begins distribution of the first version of the IRAP software.
- 1994 - IRAP becomes IRAP RMS, the industry’s first 3D modelling package.
- 1995 - Smedvig Technologies, later known as Roxar AS, acquires Geomatic AS and ODIN Reservoir Software. Smedvig’s analysis and processing software, ResView, ODIN's tool for stochastic reservoir modelling, STORM, and Geomatic's IRAP reservoir modelling software merge into IRAP RMS.
Versions
Version 6
In version 6, STORM’s stochastic modelling was merged with structure and fault modelling capabilities. Also introduced was the 'Workflow Manager' tool, which allows users to build and update reservoir models quickly.
Version 7
- Native Windows compatibility.
New modules
| Module | Description |
|---|---|
| RMSwellplan | A user friendly oil well planning tool. |
| RMSflowsim | A flow simulator that integrates dynamic reservoir data with the static model. |
| RMSwellstrat | A well correlation tool. |
| RMSfaultseal | A module designed to analyse and provide data on the optimal ways to seal faults. |
| FracPerm | A fracture modeller/simulator. |
RMS 2009
RMS 2009 has a new user interface, with an improved data importer. It also has real-time well monitoring.
