Object:
Calculation of the reservoir pressure at different radius and constructing the
graph on MS excel.
Problem: A well has flowed for 10 days at rate of 350 stb/day rock and fluid
properties includes B = 1.13 BBL/STB, Pi= 3000 psi, µ = 0.75 cp, K= 25md, h=
50ft, ct = 2 *10-5, ɸ=0.16 and rw= 0.333ft. Calculate pressure at radius of 0.333,
1, 10, 100, 1000 & 3160 ft.
Data:
T = 10days
Q = 350 bbl/stb
B = 1.13 RBL/STB
Pi = 3000 psi
µ = 0.5 cp
k = 25md
h = 50 ft
ct = 2*10-5
ɸ = 0.16
Required:
Pressure =? @ r = 0.333, 1,10, 100, 1000 & 3160 ft.
Solution:
We have,
