[Opm] Issues installing OPM upscaling module

Wed Apr 20 12:26:19 UTC 2022

Hi,

Alf is correct.  The "upscale_perm" utility does not support the parameter file method that's documented on the OPM project's website, but rather expects to be invoked as

    upscale_perm gridfile.grdecl

possibly with some additional flags/options to control boundary condition types, output files, and linear solver tolerances &c.

Best Regards,

Bård Skaflestad
OPM Developer

Hi Alun,

Actually, I have never used the parameter file option, so not sure how well that works. From the error message, it seems like it is working, but that your grid-file has formatting issues. You can feed the files directly to the routine as documented on the wiki, here: https://wiki.opm-project.org/index.php?title=Upscaling_single_phase_permeability

Cheers,
Alf

Hi Alf

I tried using upscale_perm as suggested but now get this error message:

String fileformat=eclipse not formatted as valid keyword

I copied the upscale.param file directly from the OPM webpages (opm-project.org/?page_id=405&page=5)

Best regards

Alun

Hi Alan,

As Arne Morten and Atgeirr informs, please use upscale_perm or upscale_avg instead. The upscale_singlephase binary was obsolete, and removed when we added man-pages for all (in preparation for official inclusion into Debian). I am the one to blame.

Cheers,
Alf

Ah, then what do we use instead?

Actually it's more mysterious than that.

The upscale_singlephase program has been removed from the repository. I'm not exactly sure why but it was considered obsolete.

Hi there,

seems there is a packaging woopsie for upscale_singlephase. It is not included in the deb file, I don't quite know why yet but what you are seeing is unfortunately expected. I'll make sure to get it fixed for the upcoming release.

Hi

Sorry for the radio silence but I got sidetracked.  I started following the upscaling section on the OPM website and got to here:

https://opm-project.org/?page_id=405&page=3

I typed

sudo apt-get install libopm-upscaling1-bin

and got this message

libopm-upscaling1-bin is already the newest version

I assume this means that upscaling is installed so moved to here:

https://opm-project.org/?page_id=405&page=5

I created the upscale.param file as described and typed

upscale_singlephase upscale.param

but now get this message:

upscale_singlephase: command not found

Best regards

Alun
