==History==

The company began in 1978 as an effort to develop a simulator by Khalid Aziz of the [[University of Calgary]]'s [[Chemical Engineering]] department, with a research grant from the [[government of Alberta]]. CMG became known for its expertise in heavy oil, and has expanded this knowledge into all aspects of reservoir flow and advanced processes modelling. A commercial product was available by the late 1980s. For the first 19 years of the company's history it was a non-profit entity. In 1997, CMG became a public company when it was listed on the TSX. The company now claims over 570 clients in 58 countries.<ref>{{cite web|title=CMG|url=http://www.cmgl.ca/about-cmg|access-date=31 January 2017}}{{Dead link|date=December 2024 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>
