As a 15+ year user of DRC's SPIDR gauge, I can attest to its utility. The SPIDR has given the operator a low-cost alternative to downhole gauges, especially when running an extended well test or back-to-back tests on ...

Build-Up
Build-up tests are used to determine important reservoir properties, such as wellbore damage (skin), reservoir permeability, reservoir boundaries, and reservoir geometry.
Build-up tests require the well to be shut in after producing for an extended time at a stable rate. It is one of the most common pressure-transient tests because it is simple to conduct. Build-up tests of insufficient duration can lead to incorrect interpretation of reservoir properties. Unlike downhole recorders, the SPIDR permits real time data access thereby eliminating the guess work as to when production can be resumed. SPIDR installation for a build-up test is shown on the left.
