  2. Drill stem test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_stem_test

    Drill stem test A drill stem test (DST) is a procedure for isolating and testing the pressure, permeability and productive capacity of a geological formation during the drilling of a well . The test is an important measurement of pressure behaviour at the drill stem and is a valuable way of obtaining information on the formation fluid and ...

  3. Tracer use in the oil industry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracer_use_in_the_oil_industry

    In interwell tests, the tracer is injected at one well along with the carrier fluid (water in a waterflood or gas in a gasflood) and detected at a producing well after some period of time, which can be anything from days to years. In single well tests, the tracer is injected into the formation from a well and then produced out the same well ...

  4. Petrophysics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrophysics

    As core samples are the only evidence of the reservoir's formation rock structure, the Core analysis is the "ground truth" data measured at laboratory to comprehend the key petrophysical features of the in-situ reservoir. In the petroleum industry, rock samples are retrieved from the subsurface and measured by oil or service companies' core ...

  5. Permeability (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability_(Materials...

    The concept of permeability is of importance in determining the flow characteristics of hydrocarbons in oil and gas reservoirs, [4] and of groundwater in aquifers. [5]For a rock to be considered as an exploitable hydrocarbon reservoir without stimulation, its permeability must be greater than approximately 100 md (depending on the nature of the hydrocarbon – gas reservoirs with lower ...

  6. Reservoir simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservoir_simulation

    Theoretically, finite difference models permit discretization of the reservoir using both structured and more complex unstructured grids to accurately represent the geometry of the reservoir. Local grid refinements (a finer grid embedded inside of a coarse grid) are also a feature provided by many simulators to more accurately represent the ...

  7. Reservoir engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservoir_engineering

    Reservoir engineering is a branch of petroleum engineering that applies scientific principles to the fluid flow through a porous medium during the development and production of oil and gas reservoirs so as to obtain a high economic recovery. The working tools of the reservoir engineer are subsurface geology, applied mathematics, and the basic ...

  9. Flow injection analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_injection_analysis

    A sample is injected into a flowing carrier solution stream that is forced by a peristaltic pump. The injection of the sample is done under controlled dispersion in known volumes. The carrier solution and sample then meet at mixing points with reagents and react. The reaction time is controlled by a pump and reaction coil.
