•Inflow Performance Relationship
 Inflow performance relationship or simply IPR is defined as the functional
relationship between the production rate from the reservoir and the bottomhole
flowing pressure
 IPR is an important indicator of well performance
 IPR is an integral part of production system analysis
 Mayor components of a production system are:
 Reservoir (IPR)
 Completion (stimulation, perforations, gravel pack)
 Tubing with safety valve and choke
 Artificial lift system (pump and gas-lift valves among others)
 Flow line with choke and other piping components
