The MatBal equation

In practice there is no way to measure the external influx

bodyQ^q^{\downarrow}_{GC}(t)
 and 
LaTeX Math Inline
bodyQ^q^{\downarrow}_{AQ}(t)
 so that one need to model them and calibrate model parameters to fit available data on production flowrates history and formation pressure data records. 

There is a list of various analytical analytical Aquifer Drive and  Gas Cap Drive drive models  models which are normally based on the relationsrelated to pressure dynamics
