History matching is a process used in reservoir engineering to adjust a reservoir model so that its simulated production data matches historical production data. This iterative process helps improve the accuracy of reservoir predictions and assists in making informed decisions about future reservoir management strategies.

History Matching

Reservoir engineering is a branch of petroleum engineering that focuses on optimizing the extraction of hydrocarbons from underground reservoirs. It involves the application of scientific principles to predict and enhance the behavior of fluids within a reservoir to maximize recovery and economic return.
