Abstract: Gas / Condensate Field Well Testing

Van der Post, N. and W. Boom - Shell International E&P

Numerical models of gas/condensate fields should encompass a range of complex phenomena, like non-Darcy flow, condensate drop-out, correct equation of state description and viscous stripping. The importance of the above effects are studied by comparing numerical predictions to well tests on a Middle Eastern gas/ condensate field with perforated and fracced wells. We will present the conclusions and ?best practices.?
