Well Testing and Rate Transient Analysis Consulting

Design and analyze oil and gas well tests and production data to characterize and forecast reservoir performance

Are you collecting the data you need to understand your well/reservoir? Using current analysis techniques to evaluate your data?

Our consultants combine well test (pressure transient) and advanced decline (rate transient) analysis to better understand your conventional and unconventional shale reservoirs. Upstream professionals rely on us to:
  • Gain a comprehensive understanding of reservoirs
  • Improve completion efficiency
  • Optimize asset potential

Services/Software

Well Tests (Pressure Transient Analysis)
  • Design/analyze multi/single point flow and buildup for conventional/multi-fractured horizontal wells
  • Design/analyze injection and falloff (including mini-frac analysis), DST and perforation inflow tests
  • Determine near wellbore reservoir parameters (permeability, skin, fracture parameters)
  • Estimate reservoir pressure, distances to reservoir boundaries, and/or heterogeneities
  • Predict deliverability potential at various flowing conditions
  • Recommend stimulation (for damaged/tight wells)
  • Recommend optimization candidates utilizing tubing performance curves/liquid lift calculations
Rate Transient Analysis
  • Characterize reservoir (permeability, skin, fracture half-length)
  • Diagnose changing skin or permeability conditions
  • Monitor well performance in competitive drainage situations
  • Track productivity to ensure proper production allocation
  • Create analytical and numerical production models (single-zone vertical to multi-frac horizontal wells)
  • Determine stimulated reservoir volume, optimal well spacing and EUR/well for unconventional reservoirs
  • Prove "tight gas" for government tax credits
