Description

Abstract

Well tests are the quarterly, semiannual, potential and completion tests for every perforation interval in the Gulf. These tests measure production rates, generally calibrated to a 24-hour rate.

Purpose

Analysis for oil and gas production and exploration in the Gulf of Mexico.
