[Opm] Opm Digest, Vol 32, Issue 1

Claus,

History matching is one of the most difficult tasks reservoir engineers 
perform, so anything than can improve on this will be enthusiastically 
received. Part of the issue is that comparing various runs can be 
distracting and running the commercial tools means having 
multiple/special simulator licensees.

One suggestion, is rather than write a wrapper round OPM consider using 
ResInsight and Octave to setup the decks and run the models, that way 
you leverage existing tools. Also this would mean it would be easily 
available to the community through incorporating the Octave scripts in a 
release. This would also mean that it would work with OPM Flow, ECLIPSE, 
and tNavigator.

If you need any help/advice from the reservoir engineering side let me know.

Something to consider

The opm-data and opm-tests repositories contain many example input decks that are supported. Basically, you need to remove unsupported keywords from the deck, possibly replacing them with supported functionality that achieves the same effect.
