Water-drive index for gas reservoirs

Input(s)

We\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{e}}: Cumulative Water Influx (bbl)

Wp\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{p}}: Cumulative Water Production (bbl)(\mathrm{bbl})

Bw\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{w}}: Water Formation Volume Factor (rb/STB)

Gp\mathrm{G}_{\mathrm{p}}: Cumulative Gas Production at Depletion Pressure (MSCF)

Bg\mathrm{B}_{\mathrm{g}}: Gas Formation Volume Factor at Depletion Pressure (bbl/SCF)

Output(s)

WDI: Water Drive Index (dimensionless)

Formula(s)

WDI=WeWp BwGp Bg\mathrm{WDI}=\frac{\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{e}}-\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{p}} * \mathrm{~B}_{\mathrm{w}}}{\mathrm{G}_{\mathrm{p}} * \mathrm{~B}_{\mathrm{g}}}
