Problem 2. PTA
(35%)
Objective: A simple practice to obtain reservoir properties using drawdown and build up data. A new well located in a large reservoir, was tested with the results shown in Table 1. After flowing for 96 hrs , the well was shut in for a pressure build up test. Reservoir and well data are as follows:
q=519STBDBo=1.06RB? STB o=0.92cph=13ft.=0.22,rw=0.27ft.ct=13**10-6-1 Connate water saturation (Swi):0.32
a) Plot pressure versus time on a linear scale to get an overview of the drawdown and build up tests from 0 to 168 hrs.
b) Perform log-log diagnostic plot for drawdown test and compute the well bore storage coefficient for the test.
c) Analyze the drawdown and build-up tests by conventional semi-log methods and determine the formation permeability and skin factor from both tests and the average reservoir pressure from build-up test.
d) Is the well damaged or stimulated? Why?
Make the appropriate plots with these data and show all of your work such as slopes, equations, units and calculations.

Table 1: Drawdown and build up tests data for Problem 2
Note: Please use field units to calculate the reservoir parameters.
Note: A log-log graph of pressure change, "P=Pi-Pwf" in a drawdown test vs. production time (t), is a diagnostic indicator of the well bore storage effect which is dominant during the early time region. Any point on the straight line passing through the data of this plot satisfies: Where Cs is wellbore storage coefficient (bbl), t is production time ( hr ) and q is well flow rate (STB/day), Pi is reservoir initial pressure (psia) and Pwf is flowing pressure (psia). For detailed information see the "chapter 1 and 2 of John Lee's Well Testing Book (1982)".
