Well Testing
A practical course for well test operators, production and reservoir engineers, wellsite supervisors and production technologists. It covers why and how wells are tested, the surface and downhole equipment, test design, running a test, rate and fluid measurements, PVT sampling, and the concepts of pressure transient analysis, including the derivative plot, the Horner plot, productivity index and gas deliverability. It also covers reporting and the main hazards of a test, from high pressure and hydrogen sulphide to flaring and simultaneous operations.
