'''Computer Modelling Group Ltd.''', abbreviated as CMG, is a software company that produces [[reservoir simulation]] software for the [[oil and gas industry]]. It is based in [[Calgary]], [[Alberta]], [[Canada]] with branch offices in [[Houston]], [[Dubai]], [[Caracas]], [[Bogota]], [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[London]] and [[Kuala Lumpur]]. The company is traded on the [[Toronto Stock Exchange]] under the symbol CMG.
The company offers three reservoir simulation applications. IMEX, a conventional [[black oil simulator]] used for primary, secondary and enhanced or improved oil recovery processes; GEM, an advanced Equation-of-State (EoS) compositional and unconventional simulator; and STARS a k-value thermal and advanced processes simulator. In addition, CMG offers CMOST, a reservoir engineering tool that conducts automated history matching, sensitivity analysis and optimization of reservoir models. <ref>{{cite web|title=CMG Homepage|url=http://www.cmgl.ca/|accessdate=31 March 2015}}</ref>
==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
