Computer-Aided Well Test Design and Well Test Analysis of Layered Reservoirs

Abstract

In this chapter, we introduce the multilayer well testing interpretation computer program. The computer program is based on the multilayer interpretation theory, which uses the multilayer testing technique, multirate/convolution technique, and nonlinear regression to fit the measured downhole flow rate or pressure data with a multilayer reservoir model. Finally, several synthetic/filed examples are analyzed.
