Abstract
Summary: This paper discusses the treatment of wells in a flexible Voronoi grid. A new model problem is proposed to evaluate exact well indices for multiwell configurations and homogeneous reservoirs. A simplified model also is proposed and discussed. New exact and simplified well models for heterogeneous reservoirs are presented.Keywords
