Isochronal test

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-002047

A well test designed to determine the deliverability of a gas well by flowing it at several different rates, each for the same duration. Between each flow period, the well is shut in until the pressure returns to the initial reservoir pressure. This test provides a stabilized deliverability curve for the well.
