Petroleum Engineering (PE) 2017

An oil emulsion having 15% water cut by weight is being treated in a horizontal heater-treater unit at the rate of 6000 kg/hr. The inlet temperature of the emulsion is 30°C and operating temperature of the heater-treater is 40°C. The specific heat capacity of water and oil are 1 kcal/kg°C and 0.5 kcal/kg°C, respectively. Assuming 10% of the total heat input is lost to the surroundings, the total heat energy required to break the emulsion in the heater-treater unit is ______ kcal/hr. (write answer with one decimal place)

Petroleum Engineering (PE) 2018
Oil flow rate and flowing bottom-hole pressure (FBHP) recorded with time during a multi-rate well test are shown.
Let \(k\) is the reservoir permeability, \(h\) is the formation thickness and \(\mu\) is the viscosity of the oil. \(\Delta P_D(t)\) is constant-rate dimensionless pressure drop as a function of time. The total pressure drop till time, t, where t > t1, will be:

2021 · Petroleum Engineering · Oil and Gas Well Testing · Drawdown, Buildup and Type-curve Analysis
Petroleum Engineering (PE) 2021
An Ideal Pressure Buildup Test yields a single straight line for all times, when shut-in Bottom-Hole Pressure (\(P_{ws}\)) is plotted against \(\log_{10}\left(\frac{t_p+\Delta t}{\Delta t}\right)\). Here \(t_p\) is the well production time and \(\Delta t\) is the time elapsed since shut-in. However, in an actual Pressure Buildup Test, a non-linear curve is obtained which can be logically divided into distinct regions.
Choose the INCORRECT option from the following.
