Industry Article The Defining Series: Well Testing Fundamentals
Well and formation tests, which entail taking measurements while flowing fluids from the reservoir, are conducted at all stages in the life of oil and gas fields.
Improve reservoir evaluation and interpretation
Reveal structural and sedimentary features in high detail with geological interpretation and design technologies that confirm well placement and inform optimal depths for sidewall coring, formation pressure measurement, and fluid sampling—refining both structural and reservoir models.
Interpreting all available data and integrating these results with other measurements helps you gain a comprehensive understanding of your reservoir. We integrate and implement prejob planning, real-time support, innovative technologies, and Schlumberger software platforms to maximize the value of data. Combining advanced technologies and workflows with multidisciplinary expertise, we deliver the actionable information you need to make your best-informed decisions across the E&P life cycle. Our experts have experience with all logging measurements—whether conveyed on wireline or drillpipe, pumped down through drillpipe or conveyed via tractor, and in openhole or cased hole environments.
