Abstract

This paper presents a simple approach for estimating average reservoir pressure in solution gas drive reservoirs using data of two flow tests. The two general IPR equations developed by Couto, are the basis of this work. With this approach, and provided that, certain data is available, one can estimate flow efficiency, skin factor, and relative permeability to oil. The present approach has many advantages over the previously published methods for estimating the above parameters. Excellent agreement is shown between the estimated and actual results.Field example is solved to illustrate the use of the procedure presented.
