Practical and Theoretical Aspects of Well Testing in the Ekofisk Area Chalk Fields

Abstract: This paper describes pressure transient testing and analysis procedures used in the Ekofisk Area chalk fields. These chalks consist of low permeability, thick, naturally fractured formations which are stimulated by pseudo limited entry, massive acid fracturing. Transient tests are interpreted in real time utilizing an on site portable computer. Test interpretation requires the use of spinner and/or separator rates for normalization, superpositioning, and pressure derivative data. The, induced pressure derivati… Show more

“…On the other hand, compaction may also induce fractures [15]. Since chalk reservoirs have a combination of high porosity and rather low permeability, fractures and high permeable zones are of great importance to sustain an effective fluid flow [16]. The presence of a naturally fractured system will increase the potential for fluid transportation, hence the oil recovery.…”
