Well Testing

About the course:

This course stresses practical application of well test theory to design and interpret pressure transient tests. An integrated approach to well test interpretation is emphasized throughout the course. Class exercises involving hand calculations and simple spreadsheet applications will reinforce the concepts illustrated by both synthetic data sets and real field examples. Participants will be able to apply the knowledge and skills they gain in this course to their job assignments upon course completion. One personal computer is provided, at additional cost, for each two participants.

Audience:

Operating and service company, Fresh graduate students from Oil and Gas Universities Engineers and geoscientists who want to understand well testing principles and interpretation techniques to design, analyze, report, evaluate results or intelligently participate in the well testing process. 

You will learn How to:

• Analyze drawdown and buildup tests in oil and gas wells
• Identify flow regimes using the log-log diagnostic plot
• Describe characteristic pressure behavior for common bounded reservoir geometries
• Identify well test data affected by various wellbore and near-wellbore phenomena
• Design a well test to meet desired objectives
• Estimate average drainage area pressure
• Analyze well tests in hydraulically fractured wells, horizontal wells, and naturally fractured reservoirs
