The actual use of models and decision tools for real-world reservoir operations is limited due to the gap between the models/tools and the real-world practices, tedious amount of work in case-by-case model developments, and computational difficulty of running complex numerical models. This paper presents generic diagnostic reservoir operation tools (DROT). The tools are developed based on generic properties derived from analytical optimization studies and data mining procedures. Instead of establishing a numerical model, DROT users can apply particular properties and/or procedures to diagnose a specific reservoir operation problem by just providing required inputs. DROT is available online and also provides auxiliary tools such as a data retrieval tool and a data visualization tool. DROT provides an open software framework that can include additional generic tools of models, algorithms, and functions. DROT can be used by reservoir operators, researchers, and students to obtain diagnostic information for the operation of a reservoir.

由于模型/工具与实际操作之间的差距，个案模型开发中乏味的工作量以及运行的计算难度，模型和决策工具在实际油藏操作中的实际使用受到限制复杂的数值模型。本文介绍了通用诊断油藏操作工具（DROT）。这些工具是根据从分析优化研究和数据挖掘程序中​​获得的一般属性开发的。代替建立数值模型，DROT用户可以通过仅提供所需的输入来应用特定的属性和/或过程来诊断特定的油藏操作问题。DROT可在线获得，还提供辅助工具，例如数据检索工具和数据可视化工具。DROT提供了一个开放的软件框架，其中可以包括模型，算法和功能的其他通用工具。水库运营商，研究人员和学生可以使用DROT获取水库运行的诊断信息。
