Time to reach the semi-steady state for a gas well in a circular or square drainage area (2)

Input(s)

μgi\mu_{g i}: Initial Gas Viscosity (cP)(\mathrm{cP})

\emptyset: Porosity (fraction)

A: Drainage Area (ft2)\left(\mathrm{ft}^{2}\right)

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

ctic_{t i}: Initial Total Compressibility (1/psi)(1 / \mathrm{psi})

Output(s)

tpsst_{p s s}: Time (h)

Formula(s)

tpss=15.8ϕμgictiAkt_{p s s}=\frac{15.8 \phi * \mu_{g i} * c_{t i} * A}{k}
