The National IOR Centre – where/why/how?
Contribute to improve oil
recovery on the Norwegian
Continental Shelf
•Research and development for field implementation•Environmentally friendly technologies
What is important to us?• Flexible organization
– Two theme leaders instead of only seven task leaders
– ~50% budget to institutes – reallocated short notice
• Industry involvement
– Majority of board from industry
– TC actively involved in designing projects
• New alliances
– Projects involve researchers from different institutes, industry & academia (mix of applied and academic)
– Cross disciplinary
• Looking for new ideas– IORNorway – meeting place: international, national, within and outside Centre
– Announcements of funding internally

The organization
The Scientific Advisory Committee• Advise and evaluate the scientific performance in relation
to the Centre’s vision, objective and research plans including PhD projects.
• Meet with the Centre’s Management Team, Task Leaders and Project Leaders once a year. Between meetings the Centre Director and Theme Leaders are encouraged to seek advice from SAC on important decisions relating to the scientific performance of the Centre
• Composed of international experts collectively covering the scope of work carried out in the Centre
• The committee will report to the Centre Director and the Management Team.
The IOR Methods - Improving micro- and macroscopic sweep
• Optimized water for microscopic sweep
– Low salinity for sandstone
– Smart water for chalk
• Polymer for improved sweep
– Synthetic, biopolymer, associative polymers …
• Silicate injection for deep reservoir diverging

Open Porous Media -OPM
• OPM makes use of state-of-the-art software components from other projects
• OPM focuses on porous media applications
• OPM embraces collaboration through open source
Huge initiative: Current OPM-Flow activities:• CLIMIT-DEMO
• National IOR Centre of Norway
• EU: MSO4SC
• Statoil
➢ Currently benchmarked on several North Sea Fields
Centre activities:
➢ Developing higher order methods for realistic field cases (reservoir grid/corner-point grid).
➢ Developing fully-implicit higher order methods applicable in black-oil simulators.
➢ Releases twice a year
➢ Tracer
➢ Near well
➢ Numerical computation
Essential Keywords: Long term & Education & Cooperation & Generic
Development of an Open Porous Media (OPM) simulator
23 November 2017
Visualization with ResInsight(3D visualization tool)
413 years of effort (COCOMO model)
› Benefits• OPM encourages open innovation and
reproducible research for modeling andsimulation of porous media processes.
• All OPM software is open-source• Stimulates: Long term & Education & Cooperation
& Generic• Ability to implement the functionalities you need
to meet your needs› Status
• Currently benchmarked on several North Sea Fields
• 90% of functionalities in OPM-Flow is implemented, and what’s within the remaining 10% might be different for different users
• Solvent flow, in a North sea field, was simulated 5 times faster in OPM-Flow than in Eclipse (2017)
• Professional manual in place
