Abstract

Computer Science Computer Science, Hardware & Architecture Computer Science, Theory & Methods Engineering Engineering, Electrical & Electronic Science & Technology Technology
In parallel reservoir simulation, massively sized files are written recurrently throughout a simulation run. A method is developed to compress the distributed data to be written during the simulation run and to output it to a single compressed file. Evaluation of several compression algorithms on a range of simulation models is performed. The presented method results in 3x file size reduction and a decrease in the total application runtime.
