Determining how long a hydrocarbon field can be operated becomes an issue especially for the newly developed field due to the uncertainty of external influences to its reservoir such as aquifer. To describe the conditions of a field after being produced, it is necessary to undertake reservoir simulation. The reservoir simulation shows that a hypothetical Field-X has the possibility of production until 2015 with a total of cumulative production of 3.9 MMStb, an aquifer volume of 500,000 m3 and a production index of 5000. The reservoir simulation was based on production history matching from January 2011 to January 2013. Keywords: Operation, Simulation, Drive, Aquifer
