Abstract
Summary: A well-test interpretation method based on the analysis of the time rate of pressure change and the actual pressure response is discussed. A differentiation algorithm is proposed, and several field examples illustrate how the method simplifies the analysis process, making interpretation of well tests easier and more accurate.Keywords
