Not sure whether it is your graduate thesis, project work or undergrad work.
If you have offset well data, or analogous well data, then you can estimate your IP, decline factor, water cut, field life, EUR/well, drainage area, PVT from offset well data. If no offset well, ask Geo or check the data with similar geology/ depositional environment. eg. If the reservoir is shallow, Jurassic, low GOR oil, find a similar analogous well/ field. That data would be useful to justify your project.
A lot of options and it all depends on the level of complexity and experience.
(1) Easiest way, if you have IPM PETEX software, use Prosper to get a feel of your IP (Initial Production) then use the well counts to create a production profiles in Excel. Cumulative Production to justify your EUR and Economic cut-off.
(2) Use PROSPER to generate a generic well with your PVT parameters and generate lift curves for various Water Cuts then exported for MBAL. In MBAL, create Material Balance model using PVT, your STOIIP then generate production profiles.
(3) If you have a static model, or surface mapping, build a conceptual model with reservoir simulation. Again, a lot of unknowns and no production history to match but it will give you credible Simulation model that some people might expect :-)
