Description

Quantify how skin factor affects well productivity by computing PI and IPR curves at five skin values: stimulated (S=-2), ideal (S=0), mild damage (S=5), moderate (S=10), and severe (S=20). Shows the production rate gain from stimulation or the cost of leaving damage untreated.

Decision support: Compare rates at the same Pwf across skin values to estimate stimulation benefit in bbl/D.

Workflow

  • Inputs: Rock/fluid properties (k, h, Bo, μo, re, rw), reservoir conditions (Pr, Pb)
  • Step 1: Compute PI at each skin value using PSS PI equation
  • Step 2: Generate IPR curve (Vogel) for each skin
  • Step 3: Compare rates at a common Pwf and compute effective wellbore radius
  • Output: Multi-skin IPR comparison table with rate uplift analysis
