Lecture 02 Types of well test

* En las pruebas de pozos, proveemos de entrada

y observar la salida.

* De entrada es el parmetro bajo nuestro

control, mientras que, la produccin depende del sistema y de entrada

* En las pruebas de entrada as es un cambio en

la velocidad de flujo y la salida es la respuesta de la presin

* De entrada puede ser el cambio en las tasas de

produccin o el cambio en las tasas de inyeccin (si es aplicable)

* Types of Well tests:

Drawdown test

Buildup test
Fall off test Interference test

Pulso test

Drawdown Test

Conveniente para los lmites del yacimiento. Mtodos de anlisis tradicionales se han desarrollado para pruebas drawdown.

Dificultad para producir un pozo a rate constant. Las condiciones de pozo no podrian ser estaicas ni estables.

* Buildup Test
In a buildup test, a well that is flowing (ideally at a constant rate) is shut in and downhole pressure measured as the pressure builds up.

Buildup Test

Constant flow rate condition is easily achieved as the flow rate is zero. Only slight modification of analysis techniques used for drawdown analysis is required

Difficult to achieve constant rate production prior to shut in. Production loss while the well is shut in.

* Injection Test
Similar to drawdown test except that the flow is into the well rather than out of it.

Injection rates are easier to control than the production rates.

Complicated analysis if multiphase effects are observed

* Fall off test

Similar to buildup test except that injection is stopped rather than production. In fall off test we observe pressure decline.

Injection rates Multiphase are easier to effects make control. analysis difficult Production loss is small as compared to buildup test

* Interference Test
In an interference test, one well is produced (or shut in) and the pressure response is measured at another well (or wells). Interference tests helps to characterize the reservoir over a larger scale than the single well test. Interference test is possible with any type of pressure disturbance (drawdown, buildup, injection, fall off)

* Drill Stem Test

This test is carried over a newly drilled well. We temporarily complete the well and produce it for a small period of time. Then we shut in. Again we start producing but this second flow period is longer. Then we shut in the well again.
