RESQML : a geomodel exchange standard for the petroleum industry and research institute.

@inproceedings{MorandiniGM2012,
 abstract = { Along with research and development on geomodeling environments and tools, Total as been involved in standard organizations (Energistics-POSC, OGP, SEG, ISO, …) to define Industry standards to allow interoperability between geomodeling softwares. For a long time, Geomodels have been shared only through 3D grids, with or without input data, independent surfacic elements and well data used to build them. This approach as been used for a standard called RESCUE, which is implemented in all major geomodeling environments. The need to have all the information together, to be able to modify a model without being obliged to reconstruct relations in each software was not addressed. We present the next generation for geomodeling standards: RESQML. Based on an Unified Data Model, including relations between EP objects (topology, FrameWorks) and extended Metadatas, it allows to share common methodologies to build Exchange modules, common features and objects. All this elements could be the base for building Open Source environments for Geomodeling… },
