PROBLEMA 2.
The following data correspond to a reservoir which has only two producer wells. The
distance between the two wells is 1000 ft.

 = 20 % h = 100 ft cf = 2x10-6 /psi

co = 3x10-6 /psi k = 100 md  = 5 cp
Pi = 2500 psia B = 1.2 bbl/STB rw = 6 in
re = 4000 ft s well A = 5 s well B = 0

An interference test was run in this system. At the beginning both wells were closed
and stabilized. A pressure recorder with a precision of  0.001 psi was run in well B.
Then well A was opened to produce 100 BOPD. What is the required time for the
perturbation generated in well A to be reach well B?

PROBLEMA 3
Two oil wells are producing at constant flow rates of q1 = 300 BPD and q2 = 500
BPD, respectively, from a very large reservoir. Well 2 is located at 400 ft East away
from well 1, as shown in figure 1. An observation shut-in well is located 500 ft North
away from well 1. Rock and fluid properties are listed below.

B = 1.3 rb/STB rw = 0.33 ft  = 3.1 cp

 = 20 % k = 400 md h = 40 ft
ct = 26x10-6 /psi t = 2 days Pi = 4350 psi

Estimate the sandface pressure at the producing wells and the pressure drop at the
observation well (shut-in well) at the end of two days of production.

PROBLEMA 4
If the wells depicted by Figure 3 are placed on production at the same time, compute
the flowing pressure for the three wells after 72 hours of production.

q1 = 100 STB/D  =26 % rw1 = rw2 = rw3 =0.33 ft

q2 = 200 STB/D ct = 44.6x10-6 psi-1 B = 1.35 RB/ STB
q3 = 300 STB/D h = 24 ft  = 6 cp
r12 = 800 ft k = 56 md Pi = 4335 psia
r13 =500 ft r23 = 600 ft

What assumption is made in these calculations concerning the location of

reservoir boundaries?

PROBLEMA 5
It is desired to estimate the current pressure of a point N located 500 ft north from
another well lying 500 ft east of a north-south flow barrier. The well has produced
230000 STB during one year at a constant rate. Reservoir anD fluid properties are:

s = -3 Pi = 3500 psi B = 1.1 bbl/STB

 = 5 cp h = 120 ft ct = 2x10-5 /psi
 = 18 % rw = 4 in k = 2 Darcies

a) What is the current well flowing pressure for this well?

b) Build a pressure and pressure derivative profile (versus time) for the well for at
least 10000 hr

PROBLEMA 6
Consider a two- well system in a homogeneous reservoir with infinite radius of
drainage away from a fault as is indicated in Fig. 4. These two new wells where
completed at the same time and both closed in until the pressure in the reservoir is
stabilized throughout the reservoir, then well #1 is produced for 100 hours, at which
time the pressure in well #2 is measured and found to be 987 psia. Additional data
are:

q1 = 200 STB/D k = 200 md h = 30 ft

 = 3 cp ct = 1.5x10-5 /psi  = 15 %
Pi = 1017 psia B = 1.3 rb/STB

a) Determine the distance d.

b) Does the log-approximation to the Ei function apply? If not, when is this
approximation possible?

PROBLEM 7
Compute the flow rate per foot of lease for point P on the lease line which is on a
line joining well 2 and 3 as shown in Fig. 5. The lease line is 2640 ft long. Wells 1,
2 and 3 have been producing for 300, 200 and 250 hours at a constant flow rate of
100, 250 and 200 STB/D, respectively. Other information is given as follows:
 = 20 % B = 1.30 rb/STB ct = 11.6x10–6 psi-1
h = 300 ft  = 3 cp k = 200 md
