Well Test Analysis, UTP MAY 2011
At the end of the course, students should be able to:
Perform drawdown and build-up analyses using analytical solutions.
Calculate and account for wellbore storage and apply type curves in well test
analysis.
Define and identify characteristics of variable flow rate methods and effects of
boundaries on analysis.
Well Test Analysis, UTP MAY 2011
This course reviews fluid flow in porous media and examines the analytical
solutions to the diffusivity equation. It then takes the analytical solutions relevant
to well testing and develops the classical solutions, examines their limitations and
shows examples of their use. The course examines the use of pressure and flow
measurements in reservoir management. The course also includes transient testing,
drawdown testing and semilog analysis, buildup testing and the Horner plot, linear
discontinuities (sealing faults).

The course discusses the well test analysis by using type curves and pressure
derivatives.
Gas well testing is covered as well.
