About Olga
Successful production system design and operations requires a detailed understanding of multiphase flow behavior. Flow modeling and simulation provides valuable insights into flow behavior, including the physics describing flow through the entire production systems, from reservoir pore to process facility. The Olga dynamic multiphase flow simulator models time-dependent behaviors, or transient flow, to maximize production potential. Transient modeling is an essential component for feasibility studies and field development design. Dynamic simulation is essential in deepwater and is used extensively in both offshore and onshore developments to investigate transient behavior in pipelines and wellbores. Transient simulation with the Olga simulator provides an added dimension to steady-state analyses by predicting system dynamics such as time-varying changes in flow rates, fluid compositions, temperature, solids deposition and operational changes.

iGRAF
iGRAF is an integrated powder and multiphase flow simulation tool that seamlessly merges the domains of powder and fluid simulation. It is designed as a one-stop solution for replicating a wide variety of powder behaviors and redefining standards in simulation technology. iGRAF’s integrated DEM-CFD solver enables accurate and efficient analysis of single-phase and multiphase flow, helping users understand particle-fluid interactions in one platform. Its dynamic geometry control supports translations, rotations, vibrations, and user-defined motion, allowing teams to precisely capture the dynamics of complex systems. It includes validated liquid bridging models and van der Waals forces to analyze the influence of moisture and adhesion on particle behavior, with its liquid bridge force model extensively validated up to 15% moisture content. iGRAF also combines the Signed Distance Function and Immersed Boundary Method to recognize arbitrary solid geometries.

Dive
Dive CAE is a cloud-native computational fluid dynamics software platform that enables engineers to simulate complex fluid behaviors, such as free-surface flow, multiphase interactions, heat transfer, and moving machinery, using a mesh-free Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics method. It runs entirely in the browser and on high-performance computing infrastructure, so users don’t need local hardware or installation. The mesh-free approach allows for modeling of complex geometry, surface tension, non-Newtonian fluids, and transient flows without the time-consuming meshing and tuning required by conventional CFD. Onboarding is fast (typically under one day), and the software supports parallel design-of-experiment workflows that deliver multiple iterations in hours rather than days. Dive CAE emphasizes collaboration, license simplicity (one licence for all users), transparent cost control, data usage governance, and scalability via cloud infrastructure.
