Gain deeper insight into flow behavior to maximize production and minimize risk
Olga
The industry-standard tool for dynamic multiphase flow simulation
Overview
Over 30 years of research and development
Customer-supported innovation and research has been at the core of the Olga simulator’s development for more than 30 years. Validation of the Olga code with large-scale lab research and the largest database of actual production data from leading E&P companies are key factors in its ongoing development.
Major oil and engineering companies participate in the Olga Verification and Improvement Project (OVIP), which has collected the world’s largest database of lab and field data. This data has been used to validate and adapt the multiphase flow models. Results are continuously implemented in the Olga simulator, improving the core technology to better match the realities of operations.
Additionally, the Horizon project is cosponsored by seven major oil companies, which addresses problems related to the cost-effective development and safe operation of long-distance gas-condensate transport and long-distance transport of oil well streams.

Announcement
Equinor awards SLB contract for Leak Detection System for Johan Sverdrup Phase-II development
Equinor has, through a technical qualification study, selected SLB for delivering a novel Leak Detection and Virtual Flow Metering solution for the multiphase production network in Johan Sverdrup Phase II. The solution is based on the Olga Online* technology.
Improvements to parametric studies
Introduction of important updates to the parametric study functionality including deletion of parameters, indicator for steady state pre-processor failures, and improved sorting in plotting.
Compositional tracking with Symmetry
Olga 2024.2 includes updated numerics to handle counter-current flow.
Olga simulator single phase
Expanded functionality for single phase. Single phase option (PHASE = GAS, OIL, WATER) is now compatible with COMPOSITIONAL = BLACKOIL or ON.
Improvement of inhibitor tracking
Improvements for the inhibitor tracking functionality using the new approach using the Multiflash PVT package with high accuracy corresponding states.
Uncertainty/noise in transmitter and controller output
Introduction of the functionality of applying uncertainty to controllers and transmitter signals.
Update of Multiflash library
The KBC Multiflash™ library has been updated from the previous release, from 7.4.12 to 7.4.17. The new version contains several minor bug-fixes.
Flow Assurance and Production Webinar Series
The webinar series targets users of the Olga dynamic multiphase flow simulator and the Pipesim steady-state multiphase flow simulator and associated consumers of the simulation results with the intent to share knowledge of the capabilities and best practice use of these powerful and versatile simulators.
Ensure fluid flow to maintain production—from pore to process
Identify when solids form and design mitigation strategies.
Well production optimization requires understanding of transients.
The Olga simulator is now available in the Delfi digital platform
New insights can be gained through the utilization of the secure, cloud-based environment as increased accessibility and flexibility to more science in the GPM software is automatically and instantly at your fingertips.
