Problem PTA
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 After flowing for hrs the well was shut in for a pressure build up test. Reservoir and well data are as follows:
STB Connate water saturation :
a Plot pressure versus time on a linear scale to get an overview of the drawdown and build up tests from to hrs
b Perform loglog diagnostic plot for drawdown test and compute the well bore storage coefficient for the test.
c Analyze the drawdown and buildup tests by conventional semilog methods and determine the formation permeability and skin factor from both tests and the average reservoir pressure from buildup 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.

Note: Please use field units to calculate the reservoir parameters.
Note: A loglog graph of pressure change, in a drawdown test vs production time 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 is wellbore storage coefficient t is production time hr and q is well flow rate STBday Pi is reservoir initial pressure psia and Pwf is flowing pressure psia For detailed information see the "chapter and of John Lee's Well Testing Book
