# ResInsight
ResInsight is a 3D viewer and post processing tool for reservoir models. It has been co-developed by Statoil and Ceetron AS / Ceetron Solutions AS with the aim to provide a versatile tool for professionals who need to visualize and process reservoir models. The software is copyrighted by Ceetron and Statoil and licensed under GPL 3+. See COPYING for details.
ResInsight is an open source, cross-platform 3D visualization and post processing tool for reservoir models and simulations. The system also constitutes a framework for further development and support for new data sources and visualization methods, e.g. additional solvers, seismic data, CSEM, geomechanics, and more.
The user interface is tailored for efficient interpretation of reservoir simulation data with specialized visualizations of properties, faults and wells. It enables easy handling of a large number of realizations and calculation of statistics. To be highly responsive, ResInsight exploits multi-core CPUs and GPUs. Integration with GNU Octave enables powerful and flexible result manipulation and computations. Derived results can be returned to ResInsight for further handling and visualization. Eventually, derived and computed properties can be directly exported to Eclipse input formats for further simulation cycles and parameter studies.
The main input data is *.GRID and *.EGRID files along with their *.INIT and restart files *.XNNN and *.UNRST. ResInsight also supports selected parts of Eclipse input files and can read grid information and corresponding cell property data sets.

### Dependencies
ResInsight uses the Ensambles/ert library to access Eclipse result files, and the two projects collaborates closely. The source code of the approved ert library version is embedded in the ResInsight source code tree, making downloading and building simple.
