WELL PERFORMANCE SKIN
Main Article Content
Abstract
When considering the performance of oil wells, it is frequently assumed that the productivity index can be used to estimate a well's performance. Oil well performance analysis can be more valuable when the calculations, simulations, modeling, and monitoring of production metrics are evaluated in an environment that allows geoscience and engineering teams to share all relevant information and collaborate on analysis. Today, visualization and analysis software solutions enable reservoir engineers to develop forecast estimates and optimize production more efficiently because all additional data acquired throughout the life of an oil well can be assimilated in a common environment as it becomes available.
