Overview:
Advances in well test analysis during the 1980's and 90'shave been associated
with: (a) the use of pressure derivative plots, (b) the common availability
of computer software for rapid graphical presentation, (c) the use of non-linear
regression (automated type cure matching), (d) the availability of higher
precision, high frequency data, both for pressure and flow rate, and (e)
the development of new interpretation models, such as for horizontal wells,
layered reservoirs and multiphase flow.
This book takes the form of a tutorial emphasizing these aspects of
well test interpretation in this new computerized environment. During the
book, emphasis is on problem solving, using computerized tools. A companion
CD-ROM contains full listings of the data used in many of the examples,
as well as a hypertext searchable version of the entire book (in the form
of a Windows™ Multimedia Viewer title). A complete well test interpretation
software package on the CD-ROM allows you to work with the example data
yourself to learn more about how well test interpretation is achieved in
practice.
