This course will focus on the different types of tests and techniques, both analytical and graphical, for data representation and analysis of well tests. Types of techniques covered will include diagnostic plots-derivative for draw down, and buildup tests. Participants will learn about the interpretation of complex data, such as those from well test in naturally fractured reservoirs, hydraulically fractured wells, horizontal wells, along with gas and gas condensate reservoirs. Each day participants will see examples of the types and techniques discussed along with practice problems.

By the end of this course delegates will be able to:

• • Analyze drawdown and buildup tests in oil and gas wells
  • Identify flow regimes using the log-log diagnostic plot
  • Describe characteristic pressure behavior for common bounded reservoir geometries
  • Identify well test data affected by various wellbore and near-wellbore phenomena
  • Design a well test to meet desired objectives
  • Estimate average drainage area pressure
  • Analyze well tests in hydraulically fractured wells
  • Analyze well tests in horizontal wells
  • Analyze well tests in naturally fractured reservoirs

Geoscientists, Petroleum Engineers, Drilling Engineers, Production Engineers, Reservoir Engineers and other disciplines engineers who want to understand well testing principles and interpretation techniques to design, analyze report, evaluate results or intelligently participate in the well testing process
