Additional pressure drop in the skin zone

Input(s)

QoQ_{o}: Well Flow Rate (STB/day)

BoB_{o}: Oil Formation Volume Factor (bbl/STB)(\mathrm{bbl} / \mathrm{STB})

μo\mu_{o}: Oil Viscosity (cP)(\mathrm{cP})

k: Reservoir Permeability (mD)(\mathrm{mD})

h\mathrm{h}: Thickness (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

S: Skin (dimensionless)

Output(s)

ΔPskin \Delta P_{\text {skin }}: Pressure Drop Due to Skin (psi)

Formula(s)

ΔPskin =(141.2QoBoμokh)S\Delta P_{\text {skin }}=\left(\frac{141.2 * Q_{o} * B_{o} * \mu_{o}}{k * h}\right) * S
