Many efforts in Grid communities have focused on middleware research and development. However, Grid application-level tools are needed which can build higherlevel functionality on top of core middleware services. We work with specific classes of scientific applications and present a Grid-aware toolkit ResGrid for reservoir uncertainty analysis. With the help of the ResGrid, a reservoir engineer can transparently take advantage of Grid resources and services for compute-intensive and dataintensive uncertainty analysis as well as enforce the understanding of reservoir modeling. In this paper, the ResGrid is introduced in terms of overview, architecture, and implementation status.
