Gas migration velocity

Input(s)

Δpcs\Delta p_{c s}: Pressure (psi)(\mathrm{psi})

gmg_{m}: Depth (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

Δt\Delta t: Time over which the Rise in Casing Pressure Occurs (h)

Output(s)

vslv_{s l}: Gas Migration Velocity (ft/h)(\mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{h})

Formula(s)

vsl=Δpcs/gmΔtv_{s l}=\Delta p_{c s} / g_{m} \Delta t
