The objective of this paper is to present the application of a new approach to identify a preliminary well test interpretation model from derivative plot data. Our approach is based on artificial neural networks technology.The paper illustrates the application of this new approach with a field example. The mathematical derivation and implementation of this approach can be found in Ref. 1.
