Analysis of Wireline Interval Pressure Transient Tests From Single and Layered Reservoir Systems

This project examines the methodology of the packer-probe wireline formation tests (WFT) to interpret and analyse the pressure transient data acquired at the packer and probes along the wellbore for single layer and multi-layered systems. Such tests are often called WFT interval pressure transien...
