  • Purchasing of SKUA-GOCAD licences:AspenTech (formerly Emerson-Paradigm) supports the RING-GOCAD Consortium by asking its academic SKUA-GOCAD clients to join the RING-GOCAD Consortium.

The community 

Since the 80's, the research team has set up a vast community of experts in Numerical Geology and geomodeling. Joining the consortium provides a unique opportunity to connect with colleagues working on subsurface modeling in the energy industry, subsurface energy transition, mining industry, subsurface hazards, software vendors, and academia. 

The interactions with sponsors include :

The RING Consortium is administered by ASGA (Association Scientifique pour la Géologie et ses Applications),
a non-for-profit organization authorized for Crédit-Impôt Recherche tax (tax deduction under French law).

There are three levels of Consortium membership:

  • Industrial members (Companies & organizations)
  • Restricted Industrial members (Companies with 30 or less employees)
  • Associate members (Universities and non-for-profit organizations)

All companies or organizations can join as regular industrial members for a fixed annual fee of 25,000 Euros (plus an entry fee of 5000 EUR).

The regular industrial members have full access to RING research outputs, including free of charge source code.

Restricted Industrial Members

Small companies of 30 employees or less are eligible to the restricted industrial member status.
The annual cost for restricted industrial members is 5,000 Euros (plus an entry fee of 5000 EUR).

  • AspenTech (formerly Emerson-Paradigm) supports the RING-GOCAD Consortium by asking its academic SKUA-GOCAD clients to join the RING-GOCAD Consortium. 

    Example: For an access to the full SKUA-GOCAD suite (five licenses) including Velocity Modeling, Reservoir Modeling and Reservoir Engineering, the fees are

1500€ to ASGA for the annual RING-GOCAD Consortium membership

and

US $2000 to AspenTech for the 5 academic licenses (UE4a & UE10a), including support and upgrades.

 

  • Licenses for the SKUA-GOCAD software are not provided by ASGA and may be independently purchased from AspenTech.
