Annotation:

The paper deals with the problems of modeling tech wells, evaluating their performance, optimization of management of flow assessment control devices and reliability of their work. To solve these problems we propose an approach based on the pairing of a commercial simulator and optimizing software add-in, realizing the Hook-Jeeves method. The proposed approach was tested on several implementations of the hydrodynamic model and showed good results.
