Flow regime

  "id": "MLC-T-OAG-001483",
  "term": "Flow regime",
  "field": "Oil and gas",
  "definition": "The characteristic pattern of fluid movement within a reservoir and wellbore during production or injection, describing the geometry of flow such as radial, linear, or spherical. Different flow regimes dominate at different times during a well test, each providing specific information about the reservoir or well condition. The identification of flow regimes, such as infinite-acting radial flow, is accomplished by analyzing the derivative of pressure with respect to the logarithm of time on a log-log plot.",
