2. What it provides
• Initial reservoir pressure (pi)
• Permeability thickness (kh)
• Skin (S)
Menu
• Wellbore perforated length (Hw)
• Distance of horizontal wellbore to
bottom of formation (Zw)
• Permeability and effective
permeability
3. Well Testing in Horizontal Wells
Where horizontal drilling is useful:
• Natural vertical fractures
• Thin layered reservoir
• Old reservoirs that no longer have
adequate drive mechanisms
• Producing reservoirs with extremely high
dip angles
• Exploration and development of
inaccessible locations
• Areas where environmental concerns
minimize number of surface locations
4. Problems in Horizontal Well
Testing
• Three dimensional flow geometry -
Interpretation
• Zonal variation of vertical
permeability
5. Types of Pressure
Transient Tests
• Build-up Tests
• Drawdown Test
• Interference Test
• Pulse Test
• DST
6. The general flow patterns that are
encountered in horizontal well testing:
Flow Patterns
Radial Linear
Early Radial Early Linear
Late Radial Late Linear
7. Our Project
• We are investigating about
permeability and skin factor.
• Problems that are encountered in
determining parameters and way
to overcome that.
17. Methodology
Methodology to be opted for B.Tech
project well testing analysis in
horizontal well
• Literature survey includes
– Research papers
– Book collection
– Chapter distribution for report writing
18. Methodology
• Collection of various horizontal well
data from companies:-
– different well test data
• For the history match and future
forecasting
– Well logs Work over history
– Production history
– Injection history
19. Methodology
• Comparison of company’s calculated
permeability and skin factor with
our calculation done by using
– PanSystem
– FEKETE (decline curve analysis)
• Performance prediction and history
matching by using CMG software.
