Abstract

Systems and methods for updating a reservoir model are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of updating a reservoir computer model includes receiving actual well data from a plurality of wells, and accessing model well data from the reservoir computer model for a plurality of modeled wells, wherein the plurality of modeled wells correspond to the plurality of wells. The method further includes comparing the actual well data to the model well data according to a grid model vertical mismatch metric. When the grid model vertical mismatch metric is satisfied, the method includes globally updating the reservoir computer model. When the grid model vertical mismatch metric is not satisfied, the method includes comparing the plurality of wells of the actual well data to a cluster metric, when the cluster metric is satisfied, locally updating the reservoir computer model, and when the cluster metric is not satisfied, globally updating the reservoir computer model.
