High-pressure region gas flow rate

Input(s)

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

h\mathrm{h}: Thickness (ft)

PrP_{r}: Average Reservoir Pressure (psi)

PwfP_{w f}: Bottom-hole Flowing Pressure (psi)

μgavg \mu_{\text {gavg }}: Average Gas Viscosity (cP)(\mathrm{cP})

Bgavg B_{\text {gavg }}: Average Gas Formation Volume Factor (bbl/SCF)

rer_{e}: Drainage Radius ( ft\mathrm{ft} )

rwr_{w}: Wellbore Radius (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

SS: Skin (dimensionless)

Output(s)

QgQ_{g}: Gas Flow Rate (MSCF/d)(\mathrm{MSCF} / \mathrm{d})

Formula(s)

Qg=7.08(106)kh(PrPwf)μgavg Bgavg (ln(rerw)0.75+S)Q_{g}=\frac{7.08 *\left(10^{-6}\right) * k * h *\left(P_{r}-P_{w f}\right)}{\mu_{\text {gavg }} * B_{\text {gavg }} *\left(\ln \left(\frac{r_{e}}{r_{w}}\right)-0.75+S\right)}
