SR3 Reader is a set of free Python utilities to read and visualize the output of Computer Modelling Group Ltd. (CMG) simulation software. The implemented functionality allows for great flexibility in creating automated workflows for data analysis, sensitivity studies, and history matching.
Simply copy the file sr3_reader.py where Python can find it.
The file coreflood_geochem.sr3 contains CMG GEM results for simulation of a coreflooding experiment, where the supercritical CO2 and a reservoir brine are injected in a core sample in an alternating manner. The resulting geochemical reactions yield variable ions composition at the sample's outlet and a change in mineral composition of the sample.
The script plot_coreflood_geochem.py reads the simulation data and plots a number of graphs using matplotlib.
(The pink stripes in the images above denote the CO2 injection periods.)
The file cartesian_grid_example.sr3 contains CMG GEM results for simulation of a CO2 flooding in a Cartesian reservir with wells (inspired by a template from a CMG GEM distribution). The script plot_cartesian_grid.py reads the simulation data and plots a snapshot of pressure at the start of the simulation using pyvista.
Since the internal format for binary SR3 files is not officially documented by CMG, it is sometimes not obvious what this or that data field mean. Although the code has been thoroughly tested on selected datasets, NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND IS PROVIDED WITH THE SOFTWARE (see the full copyright notice in sr3_reader.py).
Anyone who wishes to contribute to this project, whether documentation, features, bug fixes, code cleanup, testing, or code reviews, is very much encouraged to do so.
