ECLIPSE is an oil and gas
reservoir simulator originally developed by ECL (Exploration Consultants Limited) and currently owned, developed, marketed and maintained by
SIS (formerly known as
GeoQuest), a division of
Schlumberger.
ECLIPSE uses finite differences to solve material and energy balance equations modelling a subsurface petroleum reservoir. ECLIPSE 100 (a version of ECLIPSE) solves the Black oil equations (a fluid model).
