This presentation gives a b rief review of the use of models in reservoir engineering. \; It then reviews the use of simple (nonsimulation) models in current practice.  \; The latter falls into the category of &ldquo\;cogent&rdquo\; models (Br atvold and Bickel) that allow the execution of multiple simulations and th ereby enables decision-making.
