    This course will stress the practical application of modern techniques in well test analysis, with a special emphasis on the pressure derivative. Various pressure analysis techniques will be used to analyze flow tests, buildup tests with or without phase redistribution, multi-rate tests, interference tests, and pulse tests. Interpretation of pressure tests under multiphase flow conditions, hydraulically fractured wells, naturally fractured reservoirs, slanted wells, and horizontal wells will be discussed in great detail. Participants will be introduced to the TDS technique, which is an alternative option to type-curve matching technique, convolution, and regression analysis. The manual includes step-by-step procedures to interpret pressure transient tests, such that participants will be able to immediately apply the knowledge and skills gained to their job assignments upon course completion. Concepts will be illustrated by several daily Excel-based exercises and workshops.

    Petroleum Engineers who want to understand well testing principles and want to apply advanced modern interpretation techniques to analyze pressure transient tests.

    A basic understanding of fluid flow equations and a familiarity with fundamental concepts of reservoir engineering and subsurface production.
