The practice of history matching has been fundamentally transformed in recent years, with many innovative workflows introduced into the literature. There is an increasing recognition of the need to preserve geologic realism during history matching for more reliable forecasting, and an increasing acknowledgement of uncertainty and the need to examine multiple history-matched models rather than a single best model for forecasting.

 

History Matching and Conditioning Geologic Models to Production Data presents the best of the recent developments in various aspects of history matching; this collection of papers strikes a balance between practical applications and theoretical developments in order to meet the needs of practicing engineers, researchers, and academicians. The CD-ROM contains 17 papers.
