Well testing offshore and in reInote areas such as the Arctic incurs a substantial responsibility to provide cOInplete test results with Inaxi-Inum safety and environmental protection. This paper describes the new developments in a rapidly advancing technology for testing in these high cost operations. Major eInphasis is placed on producing good results to allow Inaking correct decisions in these high investInent wells. The subject Inatter reviews iInportant aspects of both offshore and reInote area well testing. Recent new develop-Inents included are surface instrUIIlentation which Inonitors early downhole flow rate for better engineering of the test, safe provisions for wireline and coil tubing operations, testing with liInited fluid production, and new downhole pressure actuated tools for high flow production type testing. Accessory equipment for wireline operations and future developments are also included.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
