V.I.P.S. is a UK based independent company, which develops and markets the Finite Element Method (FEM) based software, The VISAGETM System, VIRAGE and SIM2VIS. The company also provides a comprehensive range of consultancy services for engineering projects in civil, mining and petroleum industries. In addition, with highly qualified and experienced personnel and established links with leading Universities, V.I.P.S. undertakes pioneering research projects tailor-made to customer specifications.

V.I.P.S.' software is widely acknowledged as one of the most advanced and comprehensive Finite Element Method systems available in the fields of geomechanics, rock mechanics and petroleum engineering. V.I.P.S. has developed the world's first multi-phase Stress Dependent Reservoir Simulator (SDRS), which fully integrates the disciplines of geomechanics and rock mechanics to those of reservoir engineering. Only using our software can users study the effects of pressure and thermal gradients on progressive fracturing and in turn on fluid flow, fault activation/sealing and compaction and subsidence.

V.I.P.S. works in partnership with customers to provide comprehensive business solutions to engineering problems. For software users we offer training courses at various levels and provide full telephone and e-mail support on the use of our systems and help to customers with their simulations.
