Ephesia Consult and Geomex Software Solutions have launched the Apollo plugin Numerical Stress Modelling Suite on the SLB Ocean Store.
Ephesia Consult and Geomex Software Solutions have launched the Apollo plugin Numerical Stress Modelling Suite on the SLB Ocean Store.
Developed to meet the increasing demands of high-resolution geomechanical simulations, Apollo Fault and Fracture Gridding Advanced meshes capabilities for complex geological structures, ensuring accurate stress distribution and orientation analysis. Boundary Conditions Modelling Flexible definition of stress, strain, and displacement boundaries enable precise and realistic subsurface simulations, said the partners. High-resolution 4D Stress Simulation Time-dependent modelling will capture dynamic changes and evolve subsurface risks across the project lifecycle, they added.
Stress simulation and visualisation is fully integrated with Petrel, enabling seamless geomechanical workflows — including coupled stress, flow, and temperature modelling. Scalability and Efficiency Optimised for large datasets and high-resolution models, delivered high-performance simulations across diverse geological environments.
‘With Apollo, geoscientists and engineers gain a powerful tool for enhancing geomechanical insights across a range of applications, including carbon capture and storage, geothermal development, subsurface storage well trajectory planning and reservoir integrity assessments,’ said the partners.
