   Why and How Wells Are Tested

   • The Purpose of a Well Test
   • Drill Stem Tests, Production Tests and Extended Well Tests
   • Drawdown, Build-up and Other Transient Tests
   • Roles and Responsibilities at a Well Test
   • From Reservoir to Burner: The Flow Path
2. 2

   Surface Well Test Equipment

   • The Flowhead and the Emergency Shutdown System
   • The Data Header and Choke Manifold
   • Heaters and Hydrate Prevention
   • The Test Separator and Its Meters
   • Tanks, Transfer Pumps, Burners and Flare
3. 3

   Downhole Equipment and Test Design

   • The Drill Stem Test String
   • Downhole Gauges
   • Writing the Test Programme: Objectives and Durations
   • Choosing Rates, Sampling and Sand Limits
   • Building Safety into the Test Design
4. 4

   Running the Test and Making Measurements

   • Rig-up, Pressure Testing and the Sequence of Operations
   • Flow Periods, Clean-up and Data Recording
   • Measuring Oil, Gas and Water Rates
   • Gas-Oil Ratio, Water Cut and BS&W
