Specific type of Pressure Tests performed in cased-hole well and related to correlation between Both downhole (BHP) and surface (THP) and flowrates in the same or remote well.

Interpretation workflow of pressure transitions in pressure test data in terms of well properties and formation properties of connected subsurface reservoirs.

It may refer to analysis of a stand-alone pressure transient or several pressure transients (MRST) and may also cover transitions in off-set wells (PIT).

The quantitative interpretation of pressure transitions is based on pressure diffusion model and is a subject of the Pressure Transient Analysis (PTA).

Below are the major types of PTA with abbreviation and indication of well flow status during the test:

Full name:	Drawdown Test	Injection Test	Build-up Test	Fall-off Test	Horner Test	Multirate Step Test	Pressure Interference Test
Short name:	DD	INS	PBU (BUS)	FOS (FOT)	Horner Test	MRST	PIT
Well Type:	Producer	Injector	Producer	Injector	Producer / Injector	Producer / Injector	Producer / Injector → Producer / Injector
Flow status:	FLOWING	FLOWING	SHUT-IN	SHUT-IN	FLOWING + SHUT-IN	FLOWING	FLOWING → SHUT-IN
