Introducing the CMG Technologies Launcher

The CMG Technologies Launcher (“Launcher”) is a project management application

that allows you to keep track of your CMG simulations and launch jobs from one

location.

Using Launcher, you can set up projects or folders on your computer that contain

related simulation files. From these projects, you can:

· Start Builder to set up your dataset,

· Start a simulator job to compute your results, and

· Load Results Graph or Results 3D to analyze your results.

You can also use Launcher to schedule jobs to run on your computer overnight.

Launcher will ensure that jobs are run in order so that each job has access to the

computer resources it requires. You can use Launcher to submit jobs to other

scheduling technologies, such as Microsoft HPC Server or IBM Platform LSF, or to a

collection of computers running the CMG Job Service.

Launcher uses a drag-and-drop methodology for launching simulators and

applications. You can extend Launcher by adding icons for your favorite

applications.

(4)

Starting Launcher

Launcher may be started from the Windows Start menu or from the Launcher icon

installed on your desktop.

Launcher’s main window contains a number of areas.

· Project Selector:

The Project Selector allows you to easily switch between

projects you have defined. When you select a different project, the File List

View and Project Tree are updated to show the new project.

· Folder Selector:

You can enter a folder that is not a project that Launcher

knows about, either by browsing for the folder, or by explicitly typing it in.

The File List View is updated to show you the files in this folder, and the

Project Tree is updated to show you the subfolders.

· File List View:

The File List View shows you the files in the selected folder

or project. You can view files in the same manner as you do in Windows

Explorer, or you can use the CMG Folder Viewer to cluster related simulation

files together. You can also use the File List Filter to show only files of a

particular type.

· Project Tree:

The Project Tree shows you the subfolders contained within

the selected Project’s folder. The tree does not show folders above the Project

Folder, but you can use the Up One Level

button to view the parent

folder.

· Application Icon Area:

Application Icons allow you to start any

application from Launcher, either by double-clicking on the icon or by

dragging and dropping a file from the File List Area onto the icon.

Applications may be started directly or through the Job Scheduler. You can

group your icons onto different tabs, have Launcher scan your CMG Home

location for new applications or versions, or create new icons for other

applications yourself.

· Job List View:

Any jobs that are run through the Job Scheduler will be

listed in this area. From here you can monitor the progress of jobs as they are

run. If your computer is part of a CMG Cluster, you may also see jobs that

your computer is scheduling or running on behalf of others.

Create a folder at your desired location and name it Building Simple Model.

Builder

Builder is a Microsoft Windows based software tool that you can use to create

simulation input files (datasets) for CMG simulators. All three CMG simulators – IMEX,

GEM and STARS – are supported by Builder. Builder covers all areas of data input,

including creating and importing grids and grid properties, locating wells, importing

well production data, importing or creating fluid models, rock-fluid properties, and

initial conditions. Builder contains a number of tools for data manipulation, creating

tables from correlations, and data checking. It allows you to visualize and check your

data before running a simulation.

 Double click on builder icon in the Application Icon Area in launcher. Builder starts then the Reservoir Simulator Settings dialog box is displayed.

 Under Simulator, select IMEX.  Under Working Units, Field.

 Under Porosity, select Single Porosity.

 Under Simulation Start Date, enter 2014-01-01. This is usually the date of the start of production or injection in the earliest well.

Input / Output Control

The Input / Output (I/O) Control section controls a number of aspects of simulator

data: Titles and Case ID, Run Time Dimensioning, Restart, Simulation Results Output,

Text Output, and Miscellaneous. While all of these can be set to default values, you

should, as a minimum, enter simulation run titles and a case id.

Normally, you will not need to enter anything in the Run Time Dimensioning section;

however, if your simulation run terminates with a report of a dimensioning error, you

may need to enter dimensioning values to override the simulator defaults.

Restart runs are used to break a simulation run into a sequence of (shorter)

simulation runs. For example, you could run one simulation for the history portion of

a simulation, and then run several forecast runs, each for a different development

scenario, without having to repeat the simulation of the historical period.

There are many options for controlling the information that is saved from the

simulation run. Saving all information leads to very large simulation results files

which may fill large hard drives. The Simulation Results Output section allows you to

choose the appropriate variables to output to the SR2 file. The data in SR2 files may

be viewed and analyzed using CMG Results 3D and Graph.

The Text Output section has controls for the variable and information output to the

ASCII output and log files. These files may be opened and read in a text editor.

(22)

The Miscellaneous section has a few controls that don’t fit in any of the other

sections.

Titles and Case ID

To bring up the Identification dialog box, click the I/O Control button above the

tree view, then double-click Titles and Case ID on the tree view. Alternatively,

select Titles and Case ID from the IO Control menu.

The Identification dialog box will be displayed:

In this dialog box, enter text in the text entry fields. The first Titles field is limited to

40 characters, and the second and third are limited to 80. When the limit is reached,

characters entered will no longer be shown in the text entry field. When you have

finished the text entry, click OK to accept your changes, or Cancel.

Simulation Results Output

The simulation results file is used to control the information that is written to the SR2

file, for later view and analysis with CMG Results 3D and Results Graph. The SR2 file is

actually a pair of files with the same root file name and the file extensions *.irf and

*.mrf. To open the Simulation Results Output dialog box, click I/O Control in the

tree view then double-click Simulation Results Output, or select Simulation

(23)

CMG-IMEX TUTORIALS

2014

The Simulation Results File Writing dialog box is divided into two parts. The

Frequency of Simulation Results File Writing section controls how often, in

simulation time, different types of information are written. The Items in Simulation

Results Files controls what is written. Each control has a simulation Date/Time when

it applies, and the control remains in effect until it is overwritten by a later control.

The Date/Time when the control comes into effect is indicated in the Date/Time

column of the control.

Under Items in Simulation Results Files, click on select button for the grid properties. The dialog box shown below appears. Select these simulation variables:

o Pressure (PRES). o Gas saturation (SG).

Water Coning

Problem:

Consider a well located in the center of a radial system (4000 ft radius). The pay zone thickness is 150 ft. The well is producing 1500 STB/D with minimum bottom hole pressure of 1300 psi.

Objectives:

 To optimize the completion of a vertical well to minimize the water cut  To maximize the oil recovery for a well producing above the critical rate.

Procedure:

 Make simulation runs with different completions assuming that the pay zone composed of 30 layers each of them is 5 feet thick.

 Plot the oil recovery and water cut as a function of time, and oil recovery as a function of water cut for the different completion cases considered

 Identify the completion that maximizes the oil recovery in 20 years’ time such that the water cut does not exceed 0.70 by plotting the oil recovery as a function of completion thickness

 Plot the oil recovery as a function of completion thickness at the end of 20 years on the same graph as (3)

 Suggest a completion or production scheme that will increase the recovery and still meet the water cut requirement.

Critical Rate

Problem:

Consider a vertical well located in a cylindrical grid system and a horizontal well is modeled using Cartesian grid system.

Objective:

 To simulate water coning.

 To determine the critical production rate using vertical and horizontal wells.

Procedure

 Divide the oil zone into 25 simulation layers. Use small grid cells close to the horizontal well. Assume the horizontal well is penetrating the whole width of the drainage area. Therefore only one grid cell is needed in the y-direction.

 Make simulation runs with different oil production rates for the vertical and horizontal wells.  Run the vertical well with completion interval from layers 1 to 4 and the horizontal well case with

the well completed in layer 4.

 Plot the water production rate and water cut as a function of time for the different rate and completion cases considered.

 Identify the oil production rate at which the water cut increases dramatically.

 Compare the results obtained with the vertical and horizontal wells and discuss the advantages if any of the horizontal well.

Introducing the CMG Technologies Launcher

The CMG Technologies Launcher (“Launcher”) is a project management application

that allows you to keep track of your CMG simulations and launch jobs from one

location.

Using Launcher, you can set up projects or folders on your computer that contain

related simulation files. From these projects, you can:

· Start Builder to set up your dataset,

· Start a simulator job to compute your results, and

· Load Results Graph or Results 3D to analyze your results.

You can also use Launcher to schedule jobs to run on your computer overnight.

Launcher will ensure that jobs are run in order so that each job has access to the

computer resources it requires. You can use Launcher to submit jobs to other

scheduling technologies, such as Microsoft HPC Server or IBM Platform LSF, or to a

collection of computers running the CMG Job Service.

Launcher uses a drag-and-drop methodology for launching simulators and

applications. You can extend Launcher by adding icons for your favorite

applications.

Starting Launcher

Launcher may be started from the Windows Start menu or from the Launcher icon

installed on your desktop.

Launcher’s main window contains a number of areas.

·

Project Selector:

The Project Selector allows you to easily switch between

projects you have defined. When you select a different project, the File List

View and Project Tree are updated to show the new project.

·

Folder Selector:

You can enter a folder that is not a project that Launcher

knows about, either by browsing for the folder, or by explicitly typing it in.

The File List View is updated to show you the files in this folder, and the

Project Tree is updated to show you the subfolders.

·

File List View:

The File List View shows you the files in the selected folder

or project. You can view files in the same manner as you do in Windows

Explorer, or you can use the CMG Folder Viewer to cluster related simulation

files together. You can also use the File List Filter to show only files of a

particular type.

·

Project Tree:

The Project Tree shows you the subfolders contained within

the selected Project’s folder. The tree does not show folders above the Project

Folder, but you can use the Up One Level

button to view the parent

folder.

·

Application Icon Area:

Application Icons allow you to start any

application from Launcher, either by double-clicking on the icon or by

dragging and dropping a file from the File List Area onto the icon.

Applications may be started directly or through the Job Scheduler. You can

group your icons onto different tabs, have Launcher scan your CMG Home

location for new applications or versions, or create new icons for other

applications yourself.

·

Job List View:

Any jobs that are run through the Job Scheduler will be

listed in this area. From here you can monitor the progress of jobs as they are

run. If your computer is part of a CMG Cluster, you may also see jobs that

your computer is scheduling or running on behalf of others.

Create a folder at your desired location and name it Building Simple Model.
