Injection test
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001992
A procedure to determine the properties of a formation by pumping fluid into it at a controlled rate and pressure. Data from the test, such as the pressure response over time, are analyzed to calculate reservoir parameters like permeability, skin factor, and fracture pressure. A step-rate test is a specific type of injection test where the injection rate is increased incrementally to determine the formation parting pressure.
