The U.S. Department of Energy Strategic Petroleum Reserve stores crude oil in caverns solution-mined in salt domes along the Gulf Coast of Louisiana and Texas. The Caveman software program has been used since the late 1990s as one tool to analyze pressure measurements monitored at each cavern. The purpose of this monitoring is to catch potential cavern integrity issues as soon as possible. The CaveMan software was written in microsoftvisualbasic, and embedded in a microsoft Excel workbook; this method of running the Caveman software is no longer sustainable. As such, a new version called CaveMan Enterprise has been developed .CaveMan Enterprise version 1.0 does not have any changes to the CaveMan numerical models. CaveMan Enterprise represents, instead, a change from desktop-managed workbooks to an enterprise framework, moving data management into coordinated databases-and porting the numerical modeling codes into the Python programminglanguage. This document provides a report of the code validation and verification testing.
