Transient-pressure response

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003895

A reservoir's dynamic pressure behavior measured at a well following a change in flow rate, such as starting or stopping production. This response reflects the propagation of a pressure wave through the porous medium, influenced by fluid and rock properties. The data is recorded during well tests, like a drawdown or buildup test, and is analyzed to determine formation characteristics.
