Input(s)

$k$: Effective Permeability of Flowing Phase (D)

$h$: Net Formation Thickness (m)

$P_{i}$: Initial Reservoir Pressure (psi)

$P_{w s}$: Shut in Pressure (psi)

$v_{s c}$: Specific Volume at Standard Conditions $(\mathrm{cc} / \mathrm{g})$

$q$: Production Rate (tons $/ \mathrm{h}(1000 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{h}))$

B: Formation Volume Factor (Reservoir Volume/Standard Volume)

$\mu$: Viscosity of Flowing Fluid $(\mathrm{cP})$

Output(s)

$P_{D s}$: Dimensionless Pressure (dimensionless)
