Decline curve analysis

Post by dhiaa12 »

Hello members i have question

General equation of decline curve is qt=qi/(1+bDit)1/b
So when the decline is exponential then b=0 ...my question is how the equation is going to be qt=qi exp-dt

When i subsitute b=0 i dont get the above equation!

Dear Dhiaa12,

You could not substitute that.

You can refer to folow file.

Dear Fanarco & Dhiaa 12,

Production Analysis is topic in my honours project and my thesis. I have researched some methods in PA such as: DCA, Fetkovich, Agarwal - Gardner, Blasingame, Flowing Material Balance.

If anyone have questions about PA feel free to ask. I really would like to share my experience about that. I am not sure I can answer right, but we can discuss each other more and more.

I am sorry, my English not well :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Thank you and best regards,

does anybody has decline curve analysis in spreadsheet.it will be useful to many reservoir engineers.
I am interested in modified decline curve analysis

exponential decline gives conservative figure of reserves whereas hyperbolic gives reserves on higher side.Modified hyperbolic is in between two and nearer to realistic reserve estimates.There are software/programs,spreadsheet for modified hyperbolic decline curve analysis.I am looking for one

Hello,

Could someone share how can we calculate Dlim, the decline rate at which the modrel switches from Hyperbolic to Exponential model.

I need sort of equation that can predict (estimate) Dlim.

Thank you!
