In current external conditions effective assets management has the highest priority for the oil industry. The global production process optimization and performance improvement of all employees are one of the key growth driver of operating efficiency. Although there are many theoretical studies to monitor the achievement of the potential wells, in the most of Russian companies control is carried out by expertise using poorly integrated approaches and tools. This leads to non-optimal and untimely decisions related to development management of current assets and such corresponding consequences: a production loss, increasing water cut, time increase of achieving a planned recovery factor, and unproductive injection to induced fractures. The objective of the work is development and implementation of a system to effectively control achievement of the base production potential. The system is based on the self-consistent numerical and analytical models, which continuously adapting to information from corporate databases. To control changes in well productivity incoming and calculated indicators are automatically examined. In case of problems, the system selects the workover process with estimated potential effect or recommends additional investigations. The presented algorithms form the basis of a decision support system. It is a complete IT solution, embedded into commercial operation. During development of the information system, the organizational structure of the geological departments of the company was taken into account, which is reflected in the functional division into subsystems. At the present, a production program of activities was aimed to optimize a base production, is based in a large extent on the results which had calculated by the information system.
