Key Features
Retina Simulation™

Pre-Process

- ECLIPSE DATA file is read and transferred directly to RETINA Simulation™ model automatically.
- All the imported data can be edited and removed and new data can be added to the model easily.
- Pre-processor is completely user friendly and easy to use.
- 3D visualizer can display all the imported and created properties, wells and well completions.
- PVT and SCAL tables and graphs are displayed and can be edited.
- RETINA Simulation™ model can be built in an interactive and user-friendly environment from scratch.
- Data model is bounded to simulator core. There is no such thing as DATA file.
- All the data are entered and built in the software. No need to modify the DATA file.
- Simulation models can be easily created. Different data (PVT, SCAL, VFP, PPGrid Properties, Aquifer and Wells) can be imported seamlessly.
- All data in the model will be validated before the run.
- Statistical information for all the data is displayed.
- Complete control over unit conversion of data on every dialog.
- Complete control over floating point viewing precision in every dialog.
- Completely decoupled view and model layers that can be later converted to a Server-Client system.
