Semi-log plot
Pressure is plotted against superposition time (agarwal time), used to identify ETR, MTR
& LTR. Parameters like skin, Permeability (flow capacity i.e. kh in fact) and boundary
distances can be found. It’s a conventional plot & does not reveal as much information as
derivative plot.
Derivative plot (Bourdet derivative)
Derivative of semi-log curve is plot on log log scale which reveals minor details of well
and reservoir response. ETR, MTR & LTR can be clearly identified. Well bore storage,
skin, permeability, boundaries can be found. This graph particularly helps in differentiating
homogeneous reservoir from Dual porosity/permeability & composite reservoir. It also has
wide range of well models (Vertical, partial penetration, finite & infinite fractures etc) and
boundary models (single fault, parallel faults, rectangular & Circular boundary, no flow
and constant pressure boundaries). Now a day all the matching is done on this plot, other
plots i.e. semi-log & history plot are generally used to quality check the matched result.
