SIM Reservoir History Matching

SIM Reservoir allows you to import and visualize RFT data into the simulation. The RFT cells with associated observed and simulated values are displayed in a clever difference colormap allowing you to quickly identify areas where there is a good match (white), overestimated simulation values (blue) or underestimated simulation values (red). This way of displaying differences between observed (measured) and simulated values of pressure and saturations may reveal geometric problems within the model not necessarily identifiable through standard 2D graph plotting. If for instance an area of the reservoir (upper left corner) or a particular layer is constantly overestimated, it is immediately identified in the 3D view. Import and visualization of any logs (LAS format) can give similar visual information. Figure Y illustrates 3 wells with associated RFT analysis cells and 2 wells with las logs along the trajectory. Clicking on either objects will give the user information on the observed and simulated values, the log value at the clicked depth etc.
