PEEG 781 Well Pressure Transient Analys

This course will review the fundamentals of fluid flow through porous media, followed by flow and build up test analysis for slightly/fully compressible fluids. The course will cover well test design, methods and test data interpretation in hydraulically fractured wells, naturally fractured reservoirs, injection wells and horizontal wells. The effect of reservoir heterogeneities and wellbore conditions on pressure behaviour is studied and considered in well test interpretations.
