ISOGCR

Recognised by the OPM Flow parserPROPS

Part of the ENDPOINT_SPECIFIERS keyword family in the OPM Flow parser.

ISOGCR defines the imbibition critical oil saturation for all the cells in the model via an array when the end-point scaling option has been invoked via the ENDSCALE in the RUNSPEC section and the hysteresis model option has been activated on the SATOPTS keyword in the RUNSPEC section. The critical oil saturation with respect to gas is defined as the maximum oil saturation for which the oil relative permeability is zero in a two-phase gas-oil relative permeability table. The keyword can be used with all grid types.

Notes:

The number of entries should correspond to the NX x NY x NZ parameters on the DIMENS keyword in the RUNSPEC section, unless the BOX keyword defines a sub area of the grid, in which case the total number of entries should correspond to the number of cells defined by the BOX statement.

The keyword is terminated by a “/”.

Note this is the directional independent version of the critical gas saturation used with the end-point scaling option.

End-point scaling allows the entered relative permeability functions to be re-scaled based on the saturation end-points allocated to each cell by the ISWL, ISWCR, ISWU, ISGL, ISGCR, ISGU, ISOWCR, and ISOGCR saturation grid arrays for the saturation end-points, and the IKRG, IKRORG, IKRORW and IKRW> relative permeability grid cell arrays for the relative permeability end-point data. In addition end-point scaling may be directional dependent in which case the directional dependent versions of the aforementioned arrays should be used, that is ISOGCRX, ISOGCRY and ISOGCRZ instead of ISOGCR. There is also the facility to make the directional end-point scaling reversible or non-reversible and if the non-reversible option is selected the non-reversible versions of the aforementioned arrays should be used, that is ISOGCRX, ISOGCRX-, ISOGCRY, ISOGCRY-, ISOGCRZ and ISOGCRZ-, instead of the ISOGCR keyword.

Parameters

No.NameDescriptionFieldMetricLabDefault
1ISOGCRISOGCR is an array of real numbers assigning the critical oil saturation with respect to gas values to each cell in the model. The number of entries should correspond to the NX x NY x NZ parameters on the DIMENS keyword. Repeat counts may be used, for example 30*0.30dimensionlessdimensionlessdimensionlessTaken from cell allocated relative permeability table.

Example

--
-- DEFINE GRID BLOCK END-POINT ISOGCR DATA FOR ALL CELLS
-- (NX x NY x NZ = 300)
--
ISOGCR
300*0.200 /
The above example defines a constant critical gas saturation of 0.20 to all 300 cells in the model as defined by the DIMENS keyword in the RUNSPEC section.
