Objectives

Understand the prerequisite concepts for the Course on Well Testing, Calculate Flowrates or Pressure Drawdowns in (pseudo-)steady State Conditions, Evaluate the Need for Well Stimulation (from the results of a Well Test), Learn various techniques used in Reservoir Monitoring such as: avoid premature water Breakthrough, reduce water Coning from a Bottom Aquifer, stabilize Gas Front in both Miscible and Immiscible Gas Injection etc.
