Armos - Areal Multhiphase Organic Simulator for Free Phase Hydrocarbon Migration and Recovery

DESCRIPTION

ARMOS, the acronym for Areal Multiphase Organic Simulator, is a numerical model to simulate the flow of water and/or hydrocarbon in an unconfined aquifer. It can simulate leak events of specified rates, durations and locations to facilitate their analysis and plan for remediation. It may be used to evaluate travel path and travel times of hydrocarbons emitted by an accident, in order to optimally locate measurement or pumping wells. ARMOS has options to evaluate only the water flow (for instance to calibrate parameters) or both water and hydrocarbon flows.

The package contains a pre-processor for data preparation and mesh definition and a graphical post processor for result visulization.
