Popis:	This paper presents detailed theories and method of determining fault transmissibility and production history matching using the multi-tank material balance. This approach uses a two-step optimization process whose algorithm can be written as macros in spreadsheets. The upper-level (outer) stage optimizes the transmissibility and hydrocarbon initially-in-place while the lower-level (inner stage) optimizes the pressure of the support tank at each time step. This approach is validated using numerical simulation. This approach will be highly beneficial in effective reservoir management where little or no 3D seismic exists and for cases of sparse production data.
