Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001835

The process of adjusting a reservoir simulation model to reproduce past production and pressure data from a field. This involves modifying reservoir parameters such as permeability, porosity, and fluid contacts within geological constraints. A successful match validates the model for predicting future reservoir performance and evaluating development strategies.
