Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001481

The interval during a well test when the well is allowed to produce fluid at a constant or changing rate. This period follows a shut-in and precedes another shut-in or a change in flow rate. Data collected during the flow period, such as pressure and rate, are analyzed to understand reservoir behavior.
