Impact of New-Defined Criteria on Evaluation of Depth of Investigation for Radial and Transient Linear Flow
Abstract: The depth of investigation (DOI) is a fundamental parameter in many reservoir engineering calculations, whereas there is no generally accepted industry standard and evaluation method so far. Inconsistencies or errors will arise when unconditionally using various formulae to calculate the value of DOI. This paper investigated the key issues about DOI in terms of production rate, pressure cut-off value, especially the selection of evaluation criteria. New relations for DOI evaluation …
