Annotation:

For control, analysis, regulation and prediction of oil fields development by means of water-flooding there mainly applied the methods (not taking into account the 3D numerical hydrodynamic modeling) of material balance, displacement characteristics and water-flooding cells. The new method applied in this particular case is CRM-modeling. However, CRM-models do not take into account the main feature of "very complex structure" oil fields – reservoir properties heterogeneity. The article proposes a CRM-model for dual-porosity reservoirs (fractured-porous reservoir). Testing the model on the data of a numerical 3D model, that was built with account of field data proves good results.
