Problem 3-1 MDH Buildup Analysis

We cannot calculate skin factor, since we do not know the flowing bottomhole pressure at the moment
of shut-in, .

Problem 3-2 Horner Buildup Analysis

Assuming the reservoir is infinite acting from the beginning of the flow period through the end of the
buildup, the initial reservoir pressure is 1280 . We cannot determine the skin factor because we do
not know the last flowing bottomhole pressure before shut-in, .
