Question

Oil Well Performance/Choke Flow Exercise MEEN4800 - Dr. McMullen Vogel's Inflow Performance Relationship 01 0.2 lo max 7 qo - Oil Flow Rate - (STB/Day) qo max - Maximun Oil flow Rate (STB/Day) Pwf - Bottomhole Pressure (psia) Pr - Average Reservoir Pressure (psia) Test Data test 2500 wf 2000 1000 Procedure: Substitute qtest for qo in the above equation and solve for qmax. The following table can then be completed. P (p qo (STB/Day) 1000 1100 1200 1300 1400 1500 Reference: http://petrowiki.org/Oil well performance

Explanation / Answer

Vogel established an empirical relationship ( Vogel’s inflow performance relationship )for flowrate prediction of a solution gas-drive reservoir in terms of the wellbore pressure based on reservoir simulation results.

As per the Vogel’s inflow performance relationship, and solving with the values provided,

The solution will be

Pwf (psia)

q0 max (STB/day)
