Deliverability test

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-000988

A well test in which a gas or oil well is flowed at several stabilized rates while the corresponding flowing pressures are recorded. The results define the well's deliverability curve or inflow performance relationship, from which the absolute open flow potential and the rate at a chosen back pressure are read. Flow-after-flow and isochronal tests are the common forms.
