Software

In addition to standard software packages for office applications, image processing and literature management, a large number of special programs are in use:

Ansys (ANSYS Inc.) – Finite element program for solving static and dynamic, linear and nonlinear strength problems, flow problems and other field problems (thermal conduction, electromagnetics, coupled fields, acoustics and fluid mechanics

Petrel (Schlumberger Limited) – Geological modelling software that can incorporate and process reservoir information from a wide range of sources. Based on this information, 3D models of the reservoirs can be created and used for simulation and other purposes.

Eclipse (Schlumberger Limited) – Simulator for modelling fluid flow, composition and thermal evolution of pore fluid in reservoirs.

Visage (Schlumberger Limited) – Finite element method-based simulator for geomechanical issues related to safety and optimisation of production from reservoirs.

Petromod (Schlumberger Limited) – Software for the simulation of petroleum systems: Hydrocarbon generation, migration and accumulation.

Techlog (Schlumberger Limited) – Software for the analysis of logging data from wells.

Abaqus (SIMULIA™, Dassault Systèmes®) – Software is a finite element software package that can be used to calculate linear and non-linear solids, hydraulics, heat transfer and their coupling, among others.

HyperMesh (Altair) – Software from Altair's HyperWorks product family is a pre-processor for mesh generation of finite element models.

Tecplot 360 (Tecplot Inc.) – The software is used for post-processing (calculation of derived quantities, visualisation).

SKUA-GOCAD (Emerson Paradigm) – Structural and geological modelling of the subsurface, seismic interpretation.

FracMan (Golder Associates) – Software for modelling fracture networks. Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) models are created which allow, among other things, upscaling of hydraulic and mechanical rock properties.

RocScience (Rocscience Inc.)

Geotechnical software for civil engineering and mines, slope stability, excavations, settlement, evaluation of rock mechanics laboratory tests, etc.

GGU Software (Gesellschaft für Grundbau und Umwelttechnik)

Analysis of data from numerous geotechnical field and laboratory tests, calculations of soil mechanics and hydraulic problems

Leapfrog Works (seequent / Bentley)

Creation of geological models for planning and visualization of civil engineering and environmental projects which are compatible with common CAD and planning tools.

  • RiSCAN PRO (RIEGL Laser Measurement Systems GmbH) – Accompanying software of the RIEGL Terrestrial 3D Laser Scanner System. The entire data set recorded during a measurement campaign is organised and stored in the project structure of RiSCAN PRO and can be analyzed.
  • CloudCompare(cloudcompare.org) – Software for processing and analyzing point clouds.
  • Agisoft (Agisoft LLC) – Photogrammetric processing of digital images and 3D spatial data generation.
