In Last Simulation tab (Surface Layout)

This tab provides a representation of the simulated Surface Layout, that is, the final state of the layout after the simulation has ended.

The Surface Layout Before and After the Simulation

The Surface Layout Tab shows a picture of the project as a set of inputs represented by the objects they belong to (wells manifolds, facilities and connections). Once the simulation has been run, the In Last Simulation tab will reflect instead the changes those objects have undergone in simulation time, adding information about how those objects evolved through time - whether they were actually created, whether they still exist at the end of the simulation, and what else happened to them in that time.

Consumption, cloning and other events are only shown in this tab in those cases where they have actually occurred. This means that if e.g. an external gas supply was defined at a facility but was not used during the simulation, the corresponding icon will appear in the Surface Layout tab but not in the In Last Simulation tab.

Note that this does not mean a dynamic evolution of the graph as the simulation goes on, but rather a picture of the last moment of the simulation, with some information of past changes like rerouting, abandonment, etc.

All facilities defined in the project are shown in the In Last Simulation tab, but those that are never built or have been abandoned during construction have slightly transparent images to reflect this.

Connections are generally visible, reflecting the part they took in the simulation: whether they processed fluids or were abandoned or subject to a rerouting. Connections that are not active (i.e., available for processing fluids) at the end of the simulation have transparent colors. Connections that did not play any role are not displayed, such as pipelines that were never built or connections that belong to facilities abandoned before they processed any fluids.

Use the Open Graph right-click option on a facility to open its production graph in a new window (see Simulation Graphs). Right-clicking on other parts of the tab offers some of the Surface Layout display commands:

Show capacities: Show out connector capacities. The capacities displayed here are those at the end of the simulation, since they may have varied from the input capacities (entered in the Capacity Sub-Tab) as a result of an expansion or because they were defined as a function.
Connector colors: Show connector color legends. Colors cannot be changed.
Zoom in / Zoom out / Zoom normal.
Fit in screen: Fit the whole surface layout to screen.
Copy to clipboard: Copy the whole surface layout to the OS clipboard in two formats: as a Windows metafile (vector format file) and as a bitmap.

The following options are available in the toolbar above the Surface Layout:

Zoom In / Zoom Out. You can also use the mouse wheel while pressing CTRL.
Use the dropdown list to quickly find and select facilities by name.
Show connected wells: Display manifolds of wells connected to facilities.
Streams: Select between displaying all fluid connections or only Oil, Water or Gas.
Facilities: Select between displaying all facilities, only those with any connector free, those with all connectors free, or only those actually built.

The following icons provide information on facilities. Clicking on an icon on the tab provides further information on the event:

Abandonment.
Cloned by an Automatic Development job or a Well & Facility Cloning job. The number of clones built is indicated next to the icon.
Cloned by an Cloning Excess Policy. The number of clones built is indicated next to the icon.
Expanded by a Facility Expansion job or an Expansion Excess Policy.
Subject to a Facility Maintenance job.
Did not process fluids.
Was not built. This may be due to a variety of reasons: the Perform Task variable of the construction job evaluated to false, or its start condition was not met, or the facility was abandoned during construction, etc.
External water supply used (see Injection Facilities).
External gas supply used (see Injection Facilities).
Gas Consumption.
Power Consumption.
Emission occurred.

These icons provide information on connections:

Abandonment.
Did not process fluids.
Subject to a Well Production Rerouting job.
Pipeline Laying job deactivated.

After each simulation run, the copy of the Surface Layout in the General Tab is replaced with a copy of the new simulated Surface Layout.

At the end of the simulation, manifolds in this tab only indicate how many of their wells are still operative; if they all have been abandoned, the manifold will be marked "empty".
