This course stresses practical application of well test theory to design and interpret pressure transient tests. An integrated approach to well test interpretation is emphasized throughout the course.

Well test analyses that include the first and second derivative of pressure plotted on a semilog scale can help detect radial flow. Plots of pressure data from short transient tests often fail to ...

Well testing establishes deliverability, reservoir characteristics, and fluid properties by flowing and shutting-in a well under controlled conditions while acquiring high-quality rate and pressure ...
