KAPPA-Workstation v5.70.02: Integrated Reservoir & Well Dynamic Data Analysis Platform

KAPPA-Workstation v5.70.02 is a maintenance release of KAPPA Engineering’s Generation 5 platform for dynamic data analysis, released on 10 July 2026 . The major v5.70 release was issued on 29 April 2026 . This version is a 64-bit platform with parallel processing for multi-core processors and OpenServer connectivity for data integration across modules

Core Modules

Saphir – Pressure Transient Analysis (PTA)

Industry standard with over 3,000 active installations. Features a Bourdet derivative-based methodology, extensive analytical model library, Voronoi numerical model for complex multi-phase/geometry cases, deconvolution, and test design/QAQC .

Topaze – Rate Transient Analysis (RTA)

Over 1,400 commercial licenses. Provides single and multi-well analytical/numerical analysis for reserves and production forecasting, from simple to complex multiphase cases. Includes unconventional resource modeling and complex multiply-fractured horizontal well models .

Rubis – Numerical Modeling

Full-field numerical module with interactive 3D click-and-draw model building, automatic gridding, and full compatibility with Saphir and Topaze. Sits between single-cell material balance and massive simulation models .

Emeraude – Cased Hole Logging

Over 1,100 active licenses. Integrated platform for production logging (PL) interpretation, multifinger caliper, cement evaluation, noise logs, pulsed neutron tools, DTS thermal analysis, and DAS processing .

Azurite – Formation Testing

Merges vs-time and vs-depth data in a single application. Handles unlimited stations, automated test identification, quality rating, pressure/mobility profiles, fluid gradient/contact determination, and built-in tool modules .

Citrine – Field Performance Analysis

Handles large datasets typical of unconventional reservoirs. Workflow identifies well groups, analyzes ‘type wells’, and provides regular forecasts and reserves .

Amethyste – Wellbore Nodal Analysis

Analyzes wellbore dynamics, establishes inflow/outflow performance relationships (IPR/VLP), and performs sensitivity analysis for production optimization. VLP models can be dragged into Saphir, Topaze, and Rubis for integrated interpretation .

Key Platform Features

  • KAPPA-Server: Client-server solution for centralized real-time data management from permanent downhole gauges (PDG) and field data .

  • OpenServer: Enables data transfer and integration between KAPPA modules and external programs .

  • 64-bit Architecture: Supports large datasets and parallel processing .

  • Data Exchange: Transfer data between KAPPA-Automate and Workstation; update linked gauge data from server .

  • Result Replication: Analysis results can be replicated to Master Well Properties for further use
