Absolute open flow potential

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-000007

The maximum theoretical rate at which a gas well could produce if the bottomhole flowing pressure were reduced to zero, assuming no mechanical limitations. This value is extrapolated from an inflow performance relationship (IPR) curve derived from well test data. It represents the ultimate deliverability of a gas reservoir under ideal conditions.
