Petrobras, Brazil's largest oil supplier, has purchased an additional seat of EnSight Gold, giving the company five licenses of CEI's extreme visualization software. The sale was made by Engineering Simulation and Scientific Software (ESSS), CEI's South American distributor and Brazil's leading supplier of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and finite element analysis (FEA) solutions. Petrobras uses EnSight Gold to visualize, analyze and communicate CFD simulations of hydrocyclones, the technology employed in the oil industry to classify and perform liquid separation analysis. Petrobras selected EnSight Gold because it quickly and easily handles multiple results files with extensive transient analyses from ANSYS CFX-10 software. Petrobras uses EnLiten, CEI's free 3D geometry player, to present CFD visualizations created in EnSight Gold to management, partners and customers. The company also plans to use EnSight Gold's VR capabilities in the future.
