Development and improvement of geological modelling software packages of oil and gas fields is currently underway mainly in the direction of optimizing the model construction process. The article considered one of the optimization aspects of the geology modelling process. The optimization is achieved, among other things, by automatization. Geology modelling intelligent automatization reduces time consumption and minimizes the number of mistakes. Flexible standard modeling templates are created for the most common geology modelling schemes that are used in order to automate the geology modeling process. Modeling templates are applied to the task manager process («workflow»). The use of the task manager in geology modeling becomes significantly more effective if the local and regional reservoir geological features are taken into account. A classification of geological models was developed in order to take into account the reservoirs geology features and geomodeling techniques. Then, based on this classification, standard task managers (modeling templates) were created for the most common geology modeling techniques and reservoir geology features for the corporate software package RN-Geosim. The templates development is based on the classification of geological models by creation method. Flexible creation of modeling templates in the corporate package RN-Geosim allows to take into account the reservoir geology features in different regions, creating new and modifying existing templates. Accumulating over time a variety of templates for different sedimentary types of reservoirs and formations in the template database allows to create a new intelligent competence in the modeling area. The creation of standard, geologically and technologically oriented modeling templates was performed as part of the development of the corporate line of software products of Rosneft Oil Company.
