Well flow efficiency (geothermal well)

Input(s)

\(p^{*}\): Horner's False Pressure at \((\mathrm{t}+\Delta \mathrm{t}=1)(\mathrm{psi})\)

\(P_{w f}\): Bottomhole Pressure at a flowing well (psi)

\(\Delta p_{\text {skin }}\): Pressure Drop caused by the Skin Effect (psi)

Output(s)

\(F E\): Flow Efficiency (per cent)

Formula(s)

\[ F E=\frac{p^{*}-p_{w f}-\Delta p_{s k i n}}{p^{*}-p_{w f}} \]
