Abstract

A simple approach is presented for estimating average reservoir pressure in solution-gas-drive reservoirs using data of two flow tests. The two general IPR equations developed by L. E. Couto are the basis of this work. With this approach, provided that certain data is available, one can estimate flow efficiency, skin factor and relative permeability to oil. Excellent agreement is shown between the estimated and actual results. A field example is solved to illustrate the use of the procedure presented.
