Analysis of a gas-well pressure buildup test with constant rate

production before shut-in

A pressure buildup test was run on a gas well in newly discovered reservoir.
Known and calculated data are summarized below and in Table. Because the
reservoir pressure has not been depleted, the semi-log straight line should
extrapolate to original reservoir pressure at a Horner time ratio of unity, i.e., p* =
pi.
