One of the key metrics of well performanceA value of flowrate normalised by pressure difference between formation pressure and bottom hole pressure:

J = \frac{q}{|p_e - p_{wf}|}

flowrate (could be  sandface or surface , see below)

bodyp_e

formation pressure

bottom hole pressure at sandface


It is one of the key metrics of well performance.

The definition of flowrate

 and formation pressure

 may vary depending on application.

It is usually accepted that a given formation takes the same time to stabilize stabilise the flow after any change in well flow conditions and the stabilisation time is assessed based on the well tests analysis.

Although, this is not strictly true and the flow stabilization time stabilisation time depends on well-formation contact and reservoir property variation around a given well.
