Abstract
To determine the deliverability of a natural gas well, it is necessary to perform some kind of flow test on the well. The flow test may be an open flow test, wherein the well is opened to the atmosphere, or a back-pressure test. Because an open flow test is wasteful, hazardous, environmentally undesirable, and does not provide sufficient data, it is seldom used today.
