Measuring well volumetric flow rate and wellbore pressure in one or few selected wells and interpretation of pressure-rate correlation
The quantitative interpretation is based on pressure diffusion model.
There are different well tests classifications.
One way is to split well tests by acquisition methodology into three categories:
| Surface well tests | Open-Hole well tests | Cased-Hole well tests |
|---|---|---|
| SBT – Separator Bulk Test | DST – Drill Stem Test | SGS – Static Gradient Survey |
| WFT – Wireline Formation Test | PTA – Pressure Transient Analysis |
The other way is to split well tests by number of wells involved:
Single-Well Tests | Multi-Well Tests | |
|---|---|---|
