GM OPSIM is a strategic operational planning tool for tailored project analysis. It provides the ability to model, simulate and test the stages, schedule, resources, and limiting criteria of your operations. The results of the simulation identify the critical stages, availability and delay, resource pinch points, and potential savings of time and effort.
GM OPSIM is a discrete event simulation package designed to establish disruption, delays, and resource utilisation in marine and offshore operations. Applications include spells analysis, weather windows, drilling, production and resource availability, and uptime, transportation, and storage.
GM OPSIM combines the resources and schedule distribution with criteria, priorities, resource capabilities and environmental limits, and tests against time envelope and time series metocean data. The software is able to simulate the operation tens of thousands of times, to develop a sound statistical database.
We use GM OPSIM for simulations from simple to complex, including:
Weather window and spells analysis
Drilling availability
Pipelay uptime
Offshore towage and transport
FPSO storage and off-take
Onshore storage and SPM export
Tanker and export vessel fleet requirements
Simulation Models
Each model is a bespoke solution made by combining different analysis modules. The modules available include:
Scheduling
Resource numbers and capabilities
Production, storage and export
Priorities and queuing
Criteria, limit levels, and directionality
Metocean data and related forecasting
Spells and time series weather analysis
Spread start date
Multiple simulations with sensitivities
