GRAV_SUBS_MAPS

Modelling maps of gravity change and subsidence from flow simulation output (EGRID, INIT and UNRST files).

The script reads flow simulation results and a yaml configuration file specifying input and calculation parameters. Output is surfaces in irap binary format. For configuration of the yaml config file, see: https://fmu-docs.equinor.com/docs/subscript/scripts/grav_subs_maps.html

usage: grav_subs_maps [-h] -c CONFIGFILE [-o OUTPUTDIR] [--version] UNRSTfile

Positional Arguments

UNRSTfile

Path to flowsimulator UNRST file

Named Arguments

-c, -C, --configfile

Name of YAML config file

-o, --outputdir

Path to directory for output maps. Directory must exist.

Default: “./”

--version

# Example config file for grav_subs_maps

input:
  diffdates:
    - [2020-07-01, 2018-01-01] # Difference date to model. Must exist in UNRST file.
  seabed_map: seabed.gri  # Path to file with seabed, irap binary format.

calculations:
  poisson_ratio: 0.45  # For subsidence calulcations, used in Geertsma model
  coarsening: 8        # Coarsening factor for maps to speed up calculations
  phases: ["gas", "oil", "water", "total"]  # One map for each phase specified

Include dates

Instead of specifying the modelling dates directly in the yaml config file it is possible to include them from another yaml file:

input:
  diffdates: !include_from global_variables.yml::global.dates.GRAVITY_DIFFDATES

This is an advantage if the dates in the global config is used also for other jobs. In this example the included file looks like this:

# example global config file with dates
global:
  dates:
    GRAVITY_DIFFDATES:
    - - 2020-07-01
      - 2018-01-01

The output files

The output from this job are maps in irap binary format. For each difference date there will be one subsidence map and one or more gravity change maps (depending on which phases are specified to model).

The naming of the output files have been standardised to:

all–subsidence–yyyymmdd_yyyymmdd.gri
all–delta_gravity_gas–yyyymmdd_yyyymmdd.gri
all–delta_gravity_oil–yyyymmdd_yyyymmdd.gri
all–delta_gravity_water–yyyymmdd_yyyymmdd.gri
all–delta_gravity_total–yyyymmdd_yyyymmdd.gri

The “all” prefix is indicating that the contributions from all zones is summed.
