Abstract
A method, system and processor readable medium containing computer readable software instructions for selecting representative models from a large ensemble of models is disclosed. An ensemble of reservoir models that define an input uncertainty space is provided. A target number of representative models and one or more target percentiles of output variables that the representative models are to approximate are input. The representative models from the ensemble of reservoir models that match the one or more target percentiles of output variables are selected while maximizing the spread between the selected representative models in the input uncertainty space.
