Weatherford software too! provides multiple sient models and analysis. PanSystem® software has been the industry's leading well-test analysis program for more than 20 years. Its a robust yet easy-to-use software tool that provices multiple options for mode's and analysis. These options include Industry standards as well as user-defined models for aditional Nexibity. Uttimately, the PanSystem application provides a way to simplify complex transient well testing through detalled analysis, simulation and reporting PanSystem sotware is dedicated to transient well esting, a Key technical function in the oll and gas industry. A pressure transient well test hes the unique capability to obtain information from vithin the reservoir surrounding the well and, with appropriate testing and analysis techniques, can provide wealth of data: + Permeabilty ofthe reservolrat-large and, in some cases, the near- wellbore region + Completion efficiency, effective open interval size (over the life ofthe well + Reservoir structure (boundaries, heterogeneities) + Reservoir pressure + Nature of any pressure support + Drainage area, connacted pore volume, and intial hygrocarbons in place + Vertical permeability, vrtical communi + Well performance (over the Ife of the wel tion in layered systems + Communication between wells + Deliverablity and production forecasts Typical pomanont downhole gauge record spanning 15 months of rato changos and shut ns, planned and unscheduled 2 cates ant Typical applications ‘The task of designing, executing and analyzing a well test depends on operating conaitions as well as completion and reservoir type.

The PanQL application performs an automatic transient analysis quick- look on unscheduled bulldups from wellhead or downhole ‘gauge data and e-mails the resuits to the reservoir engineer. “The entire process is automated so that no user interaction Is required and no valid buildup, no matter how short, is missed. + The PanQL program is triggered when a shut-in is detected land the pressure change and duration constitutes a valid dataset for interpretation.

Wet Test Anas Sofware NGF Permanent downhole gauge data—long-term data analysis ‘PanSystem software can be used to analyze an entire permanent downhole gauge recoré or sections of it rather than just individual bullcups. This takes advantage of the huge radius of investigation implicit in any long-term pressure record at a constant rate (idealy) or at diferent rates interspersed \with shut-in, which is typical for identifying remote boundaries, closure, drainage area and pore volume. ‘Taree techniques are avaliable in the POA module of PanSystem software. + Deconvolution: The deconvolution module processes any multirate test ‘sequence inelucing flowing periods and shut-ins and, without any prior ‘assumptions regarding models, presents the data in the form of constant rate drawdown response, from which its more straightforward to extract the lunderiying reservoir and boundary models. The medule also has the option te minimize errors in flowrate measurements by making adjustments + Agarwal-Gardner type-curves: These type-curves are intended primarily for assessment of drainage area and pore volume in semisteady state systems, but also cover the early transient period, Equivalent constant rate (ECR) method: Primarily for semisteady state analysis, this method is 2 relatively simplistc process vhich, lke deconvolution, converts the data to an equivalent constant rate dravidown, ‘The powerful wavelet-based advanced data concitioning module has been Implemented in the dataprep section to faciitate reduction and denolsing of large datasets and to detect rate change events automatically Deconvolution module, showing raw data, 8 sequence of flowing and shut:n periods (upper lot); the doconvolvad constant rato darvative (ight), towrates before and aftr adjustment an optional part ofthe decorwolution process (lower le).
