SSOL

Recognised by the OPM Flow parserSOLUTION

The SSOL keyword defines the initial equilibration solvent saturation values for all grid cells in the model and should be used in conjunction with the PBUB, PDEW, PRESSURE, RS, RV, SGAS, SOIL and SWAT keywords etc., to fully describe the initial state of the model. The keyword should only be used if the solvent phase has been activated in the model via the SOLVENT 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, RS, RV, SGAS, SOIL, and SWAT keywords to fully define the initial state of the model.

1SSOLSSOL is an array of real positive numbers that are greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to one assigning the initial equilibration solvent saturation values to each cell in the model. Repeat counts may be used, for example 20*0.000.dimensionlessdimensionlessdimensionlessNone

Example

--
-- DEFINE INITIAL EQUILIBRATION GAS SAT VALUES FOR ALL CELLS IN THE MODEL
-- BASED ON NX = 100, NY = 100 AND NZ = 3
--
SSOL
1000*0.0000 1000*0.0000 1000*0.0000 /
The above example defines the initial equilibration solvent saturation values to be 0.0 for all the cells in the in the model.
