Abstract

Should we aspire to build detailed full-field reservoir models with a view to using those models to answer business questions?
In this chapter it is suggested the answer to the above question is ‘not necessarily’. Instead we argue the case for building for fit-for-purpose models, which may or may not be detailed and may or may not be full-field.
This choice triggers the question: ‘what is our purpose?’ The answer to this question determines the model design.
