Abstract

See full text

The invention IS a method for exploiting (EXP) a geological reservoir by using a reservoir model consistent with a geological model (MG). Reservoir models (MRn) are constructed by using different upscaling methods. By utilization of a connectivity study, conducted on the basis of an algorithm resolving the shortest path (DIS) applied to the meshings, the main flowpaths are identified between the wells for the geological model (MG) and for the different reservoir models (MRn). The reservoir model (MR) for which the lengths of the main flowpaths between wells are closest to those obtained for the starting geological model is then selected.
