Fig. 1. Dual-layer well schematic




q = q_1 + q_2




p_{wf} = p_e - q/J



J = J_1 + J_2



p_e = \frac{J_1 \cdot p_1 + J_2 \cdot p_2}{J_1 + J_2}


where

total subsurface flowrate of the well

total well productivity Index

apparanet formation pressure of dual-layer formation

total subsurface flowrate of the Layer #1

formation pressure of the Layer #1



The above equations are valid for both producers and injectors.
