ORFA, an acronym for “One Run, Fixed A”, was developed by Sirius jointly with our partners at StratoChem Services.
ORFA converts Rock-Eval, SRA, or Hawk pyrolysis data obtained from a single run into a set of activation energies, once the user has specified the A factor. ORFA will also break the bulk or total-hydrocarbon kinetics into separate kinetics for oil and gas generation, using a method similar to that published by Waples and Mahadir Ramly (2001).
In addition, the user can easily adjust the Ea spacing or change the Ea values to non-integral values in order to achieve better resolution, or edit the Ea distribution to remove the effects of baseline drift and contamination by bitumen or OBM. Having ORFA in house will enable those interested in source-rock kinetics to examine multiple interpretation scenarios and choose intelligently the solution that best meets their needs.
Our Novva software is a unique and powerful tool for geological investigation and integration. No other 1D modeling software can compare with its technical completeness multiple options, and built-in aids for modelers.
Its interview format allows even inexperienced or occasional users to build sophisticated, high-quality models, and to make new discoveries about the geological history while constructing those models. In addition, Novva offers the largest library available of source-rock kinetics for modeling hydrocarbon generation and cracking, as well as numerous options of graphical output of modeling results
