Skin factor due to reduced crushed-zone permeability

Input(s)

hph_{p}: Perforation interval (ft)

kd\mathrm{kd} : Damage Zone permeability (mD)(\mathrm{mD})

kdp: Crushed Zone Permeability (mD)(\mathrm{mD})

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

rdpr_{d p}: Crushed Zone radius (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

rpr_{p}: Perforation Radius (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

Lp: Depth of Penetration (ft)

N: Total Number of Perforations (number)

Output(s)

sc: Skin Factor due to Reduced Crushed-Zone Permeability (dimensionless)

Formula(s)

sc=(kkdpkkd)12hpNLpln(rdprp)s c=\left(\frac{k}{k d p}-\frac{k}{k d}\right) * 12 * \frac{h_{p}}{N * L p} * \ln \left(\frac{r_{d p}}{r_{p}}\right)
