Abstract
Frictional effects were included in the closed chamber well test model in order to develop a more general solution for the closed chamber well test. Superposition of the cumulative influx, constant pressure solution of the radial diffusivity equation is used to overcome the limitations and difficulties resulting from solving the diffusivity equation in the presence of changing wellbore storage and frictional effects.A sensitivity study was performed to analyze the influence of different tool and reservoir parameters on the closed chamber well test in the presence of frictional effects. Frictional effects significantly affect the early time pressure response of the closed chamber well test. The superposition model was also improved by using variable time steps, hence, increasing the computation efficiency of the model.
