Emerson Automation Solutions today announced that it has supplied its Roxar RMS™ reservoir modeling software to Kuwait Oil Company (KOC).
The new licenses will be used to build more accurate and detailed reservoir models. The new contract expands KOC’s wide adoption of previously purchased Roxar RMS software, which has provided crucial input to KOC in well placing and determining the wellbore trajectory in the most potentially productive parts of the reservoir as well as reducing the geosteering risk for sidetracked wells.
Roxar RMS software helps operators accelerate the field development planning cycle by allowing multiple disciplines to collaborate on a common reservoir model. The software also facilitates the implementation of the Big Loop™ solution, an automated workflow that tightly integrates static and dynamic domains to provide the greatest accuracy, the most comprehensive uncertainty assessment, and the best-quantified risk in the geologic model.
“Our collaboration with KOC increases confidence when it comes to crucial decisions on where to drill, what production strategies to adopt, and how to maximise recovery,” said Ali Ramady, regional sales manager, Middle East & Africa at Emerson Automation Solutions.
“We will continue to provide KOC with advanced seismic-to-production management technologies for better workflow integration between the subsurface and surface – a key component of the digital oilfield landscape of the future.”
Emerson’s Roxar RMS reservoir modeling software includes a variety of different modules covering well correlation, mapping, structural modeling, petrophysical modeling, local model updates, facies modeling, fracture modeling and uncertainty management.
