Problem Solution

A fall-off test was conducted on a brine disposal well over 240 hours of injection at a rate of -807 STB/D. Pressure data from the test was analyzed to determine the permeability (K) and skin factor (S) of the reservoir. K was calculated to be 12.2 mD and S was calculated to be 0.5, indicating slight damage to the wellbore. The test analyzed injectivity data from a constant-rate water injection well test to determine K and S, assuming unit mobility ratio conditions. K was calculated to be 11.9 mD and S was calculated to be 1.8859, indicating damage to the wellbore.

Fall-off test analysis in a liquid filled reservoir. Unit mobility ratio reservoir
condition. Following an injection period of 240 hours, a fall-off test was conducted
on a brine disposal well using the data summarized below and in table to determine
K and S, where:
