It is related to Total sandface flowrate as:
q_L^{\uparrow} = \frac{q_t}{B_w Y_W + \left[ (B_o - R_s B_g) + (B_g - R_v B_o) \, Y_G \right] \cdot (1-Y_W)} |
where
| Total sandface flowrate | |
| formation volume factors between separator and sandface pressure/temperature conditions | |
| Solution GOR and Vaporized oil ratio at sandface pressure/temperature conditions | |
| Production Water Cut | |
| Production Gas-Oil-Ratio |
