Dear OPM community,

We are pleased to announce the availability of OPM release 2016.10!

This is the second release this year, the previous release was 2016.04. The next release is expected to be 2017.04.

The release brings major improvements to the output capabilities of Flow, the fully implicit black-oil reservoir simulator. This includes improvements to summary and restart output, which is now controllable from the input deck, and also improved logging behaviour.

In addition there are numerous minor feature additions and bugfixes throughout all modules. There are only minor changes to the module structure, see the updated modules page.

We’d like to thank all who played a part in the release, for finding bugs, posting issues, writing code, reviewing, testing and packaging.

Instructions for installation are found on our download page. Binary packages are available for Ubuntu and Red Hat Enterprise Linux, instructions are available for building from source for any Linux variant or Mac OS X.
