OilWell_Test_Analysis

OilWell Test Analysis is developed primarily to offer assistance to petroleum engineers, reservoir engineers, researchers, petroleum production engineers, drilling engineers, completion engineers, petrophysicists, petroleum geologists, students (undergraduates, postgraduates, etc.), and other oil and gas professionals interested in enriching themselves with knowledge about pressure transient analysis (Well testing).

Testing a well (oil well) in order to obtain relevant data which can be analyzed to broaden the knowledge and understanding of hydrocarbon properties and characteristics of the petroleum reservoir form the basis for OilWell Test Analysis.

OilWell Test Analysis plays a vital role in petroleum and reservoir engineering. It's one of the important keys to understand well and reservoir performance.

OilWell Test Analysis is a useful guide that provides great insights into well test operations with major emphasis on straight line methods.

*MAIN OBJECTIVES OF OILWELL TEST ANALYSIS (PRESSURE TRANSIENT ANALYSIS)*

-To determine well parameters such as skin, wellbore storage constant, productivity index, flowing pressures in wellbore, fluid distribution in wellbore, static gradients

-To determine reservoir parameters such as permeability, gas/oil contacts, average pressure in the drainage area, vertical or horizontal permeability, distance to boundary

-To assess changes in previous survey, that is, changes in drainage area (from a drawdown test), changes in datum pressure, changes to damage skin, etc.

-To determine dynamic influence of other wells or aquifer
