  The High Energy Storage Ring (HESR) will be part of the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) located at GSI in Darmstadt, Germany. The HESR will be operated with antiprotons in the momentum range from 1.5 to 15 GeV/c, which makes a long beam life time and a minimum of particle losses crucial. This and the demanding requirements of the PANDA experiment lead to the necessity of a good orbit correction and an effective multipole compensation. We developed a closed orbit correction scheme and tested it with Monte Carlo simulations. We assigned different sets of angular and spatial errors to all elements (magnets, bpms, etc.) within the lattice of the HESR. For correction we applied the orbit response matrix method. We carried out investigations concerning higher-order multipoles and created a scheme for chromaticity correction and compensation of arising resonances utilising analytic formulae and dynamic aperture calculations. In this presentation we give an overview of the correction and compensation schemes and of the corresponding results.
