Abstract

A pressure transient analysis method is presented for interpreting breakthrough time between two constant rate wells. The wells are modeled as two line source wells in an infinite reservoir. The first well injects at a constant rate and the second well produces at a constant rate. We studied the effects of transient pressure conditions on breakthrough time. The first arrival of injected fluid at the production well may be significantly longer under transient condition than under steady state condition. A correlation of the deviation of the breakthrough time for transient pressure conditions from the steady state condition is presented.
