Abstract
Summary This paper presents a new technique, the cumulative-curvature method, for analyzing well tests with such limited early-time data that only nonunique type-curve matches are possible. The method is applied to buildup tests and single-rate drawdown tests that are distorted by wellbore storage and are run in infinite-acting reservoirs. The method was successfully applied to 16 of 22 field examples, two of which are presented here.
