Productivity Index • Intuitive:
– for a given reservoir-well geometry, the ratio of production rate to some pressure difference between the reservoir and the well is basically independent from production history or even from actual operating conditions, once the well production is "stabilized"
• Math: Key concept is invariance– From time– From production rate or pressure
difference
![Page 18: Radial flow equation](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022033017/56812eed550346895d94892a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
04/19/23 ENGI6324: A-2-1 18
3 basic flow regimes with invariance properties
• Steady-State: Constant pressure outer
boundary and constant pressure (or flowrate)
at the well
• Pseudo-Steady State: No flow outer
boundary and constant flowrate at the well
• Boundary-Dominated State: No flow outer
boundary and constant pressure at the well
![Page 19: Radial flow equation](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022033017/56812eed550346895d94892a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
04/19/23 ENGI6324: A-2-1 19
Unified View• Driving force is average reservoir
pressure minus wellbore pressure
• We are looking for an initial distribution of pressure PROVIDING time invariance at once
• In the case of Pseudo-steady and Boundary-dominated states time invariance applies only to PI and some characteristics of the pressure distribution ("shape")
