Well Test Analysis Model Answer

1. The document provides solutions to calculation problems involving reservoir engineering concepts like fluid properties, well testing, pressure calculations, flow rates, and productivity index. It calculates hydrostatic pressures at different depths in a wellbore, fluid properties, total compressibility, oil production from a reservoir as pressure declines, flow rates for different skin values, pressure loss due to skin, and amount of oil produced as average reservoir pressure drops for a volumetric reservoir. 2. One question calculates flow rates of 223.55 STB/D for a skin of 0 and 96.5 STB/D for a skin of 10, in a steady-state radial flow reservoir. 3. The pressure drop due to a skin of 10

1. Which test takes longer time to perform?

WFT, FasTest, DST, Reservoir Limit test

2. Supercharge effect is more likely to occurs in what type of reservoirs, state all the correct
ones: (Answer a & e)
a. Oil wells
b. Gas wells
c. Gas condensate wells
d. Wells with asphaltene problems
e. In low to medium permeability zones
f. In highly permeable zones

3. In a wellbore shut-in at surface, the water oil contact is at 8,000 ft, the Oil Gas contact is at
2,000 ft and gas is to the surface. The wellhead pressure is 100 psig. What is the
hydrostatic pressure at 1,000 ft, 5,000 ft, and at 9,000 ft. The specific gravity of oil is 0.8
and gas has a pressure gradient of 0.1 psi/ft. All depths are measured TVD from surface.
a. At 1,000 ft: pws = 100 + 1000 x 0.1 = 200 psi
b. At 5000 ft: pws = 100 + (2000 x 0.1) + [(5000-2000) x 0.8 x 0.433] = 1339.2 psi
c. At 9000 ft: pws = 100 + (2000 x 0.1) + [(8000-2000) x 0.8 x 0.433] + [(9000-
8000) x 0.433] = 2811.4 psi

4. What is the API gravity of water? What is the specific gravity and density of a 35 OAPI oil at
surface?

Water API = 10
ϒ = 141.5 / (131.5 + API) = 141.5 / (131.5 + 35) = 0.85
0.85 = ρ/ 62.4  ρ = 62.4 x 0.85 = 53 lb /ft3 or 0.85 g/cc

5. Calculate ct, total compressibility for a reservoir fluid with 70% Oil, 30% water and having
oil, water, and rock compressibility values of 8 e-6, 3 e-6, and 4 e-6 psi -1 respectively.

ct = co So + cw Sw + cf
ct = (0.7 x 8 x 10-6) + (0.3 x 3 x 10-6) + 4 x 10-6 = 10.5 x 10-6 psi -1
6. For above fluids how much oil can be produced for each STB of original oil-in-place if
reservoir pressure drops by 500 psi for Boi = 1.3 and Bo = 1.25 in a volumetric reservoir (no
water production or influx).
N p Bo = NB oi c t Δp

Np x 1.25 = 1 x 1.3 x 10.5 x 10-6 x 500 = 6.825 x 10-3


Np = 5.46 x 10-3 STB

7. What is the flow rate for a skin of zero and 10 in a steadystate-radial flow reservoir with a
pressure of 3,000 psi, pwf of 1,500 psi, kh of 100 md-ft, viscosity of 0.5 cp, formation volume
factor of 1.25 bbl/STB, reservoir size of re = 1,000 ft, and a wellbore radius of 0.5 ft?

rw =
( 7.08 x 10−3 ) (100)(3000−1500) 1699.2 STB

1000 [ 7.6+ S ] D
0.5(1.25) ln
[( ) ] 0.5
+S

q = 96.5 STB/D for S=10

8. Calculate the pressure drop due to skin for the parameters in question 7. What percentage
of the drawdown pressure is lost due to skin?

qw μB
Δp Skin =141 .2 S
kh = (141.2)(96.5)(0.5)(1.25)(10)/100) = 851.6 psi
∆Ps / ∆PDD= 851.6 / 1500 = 0.568 or 56.8%, this is a significant pressure loss
No pressure drop for S=0

9. For the data of question 7 and assuming a volumetric reservoir, how much oil can be
produced if the average formation pressure drops to 2,000 psi? Use Sw =25%, porosity
=15%, hnet = 20 ft, ct = 1e-5 psi-1.

N P (STB)BO =q w B o (t /24 )=ct A hnet φ(1−S w )( Pi− P̄ )/5.615


(Np) (1.25) = (1e-5) (π x 10002) (20) (0.15) (1-0.25) (3000-2000) /5.615
1.25 Np = 12,589
Np = 10,071 STB

10. What is the productivity Index for the data given in question 7 for the two skin values?

Productivity Index = q / (Pi – Pwf) = 223.55 / (3000 – 1500) = 0.149 (STB/D /psi) for
S=0
PI = 96.5 / 1500 = 0.064 (STB/D /psi) for S=10
