The Reservoir Simulator for Chemical EOR

Meteor is a powerful reservoir simulator for Chemical EOR. It supports all of the main CEOR processes, including polymer, surfactant, ASP, tracers and geochemical reactions. Meteor uses detailed chemical and physical modelling of complex CEOR processes and can represent three liquid phases, allowing Type III microemulsion to be modelled. Simulation of the chemical processes has been optimised, in terms of performance and memory, allowing multi-million cell models to be handled, so that Meteor can be used for corefloods, pilot studies and field-scale applications. The simulator input and output formats are fully UTCHEM compatible, making it straightforward to transition from UTCHEM to Meteor.

Meteor incorporates enhanced real-time data checking keeping the user informed of the simulation run progress. Meteor has advanced editing capabilities using text editing, data validation, error checking and 3D visualisation of input decks allowing for enhanced productivity and understanding of the simulation models. Meteor also links to  S3control to allow for analysis of results

Meteor comprises two components: the Meteor Engine, which is a highly efficient, UTCHEM-compatible simulation engine, and Meteor Desktop, an easy-to-use interface that validates the simulation input data, provides views of the grid geometry and CEOR properties, and allows editing of the input, and launching and monitoring of runs. Meteor Desktop and the Meteor Engine can be licensed separately, allowing Meteor Desktop to be used with UTCHEM, and for efficient licence usage.
