SIMULATION SYSTEM INCLUDING A SIMULATOR AND A CASE MANAGER ADAPTED FOR ORGANIZING DATA FILES FOR THE SIMULATOR IN A TREE LIKE STRUCTURE

摘要

A simulation system is responsive to a plurality of sets of input data (95, 97) for simulating an earth formation located in the vicinity of an oilfield reservoir, generating a set of simulation results (48) in response to the simulation, and displaying the set of simulation results (48). The simulation system includes a case manager (46c1) adapted for organizing and managing the plurality of sets of input data being used by the simulation system. The case manager includes a plurality of case scenarios (56, 58) organized in a tree-like structure, some case scenarios being supersets of other case scenarios in the tree-like structure.
