Reservoir fluids are
the fluids (including
gases and solids) that
primary reservoir chrematistics exist in a reservoir.
The fluid type must be
determined very early
Types of fluids in the life of a

Flow regimes 3. Three phase flow
There are usually three flow regimes.

1. Steady state flow. ∂p/∂t i = 0

Steady state flow occurs during the late time region when a
constant pressure boundary exists. Constant pressure
boundaries arise when the reservoir has aquifer support, and

the time it reaches the furthest boundary. The transient flow period ends, in

this flow the rate of change of pressure is not constant nor zero.

3. Pseudo steady-state flow (∂p/∂t)i = constant

As soon as the flow begins to feel the effect of the boundary, it is no longer in the
transient regime. Pseudo-steady state (PSS) flow occurs during the late time region

when the outer boundaries of the reservoir are all no-flow boundaries, the rate of change of
pressure with respect of time is constant.

1. radial flow Because fluids move toward the well from all directions and coverage at the wellbore, the term
radial flow is used to characterize the flow of fluid into the wellbore.

2. linear flow Linear flow occurs when flow paths are parallel and the fluid flows in a single direction
3. spherical and hemispherical flow spherical or hemispherical flow near the wellbore. A well with a limited
perforated interval could result in spherical flow in the vicinity of the perforations
