RS

Recognised by the OPM Flow parserSOLUTION

The RS keyword defines the initial equilibration gas-oil ratio values for all grid cells in the model and should be used in conjunction with the PBUB, PDEW, PRESSURE, RV, SGAS, SOIL and SWAT keywords etc., to fully describe the initial state of the model. The keyword should only be used if dissolved gas has been activated in the model via the DISGAS keyword in the RUNSPEC section.

This is the non-standard method to initialize the model via enumeration and is seldom employed in the industry. The standard methodology is for OPM Flow to initialize a model using the parameters on the EQUIL keyword combined with other keywords to fully describe the initial state of the model. 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 “/”.

See also the PBUB, PDEW, PRESSURE, RV, SGAS, SOIL and SWAT keywords to fully define the initial state of the model.

Parameters

No.NameDescriptionFieldMetricLabDefault
1RSRS is an array of real positive numbers assigning the initial equilibration gas-oil ratio values to each cell in the model. Repeat counts may be used, for example 20*1.30.Mscf/stbsm3/sm3scc/sccNone

Example

--
-- DEFINE INITIAL EQUILIBRATION GOR VALUES FOR ALL CELLS IN THE MODEL
-- BASED ON NX = 100, NY = 100 AND NZ = 3
--
RS
1000*1.3500 1000*1.3010 1000*1.3000 /
The above example defines the initial equilibration GOR values to be 1.3500 for all the cells in the first layer, 1.3010 for all the cells in the second layer, and finally 1.3000 for all the cells in the third layer.
