ABSTRACT:
A method for increasing production in a reservoir, comprising performing a swabbing test at a depth in a pipe, wherein the pipe is located in a wellbore and wherein a portion of the wellbore is located inside the reservoir, periodically measuring, during the swabbing test, pressure in the bottom portion of the pipe using the pressure gauge to obtain a plurality of pressure measurements, wherein the pressure gauge is affixed to an inner wall of a bottom portion of the pipe, and determining a plurality of flow rates of fluid flowing from the reservoir through perforations in the wellbore into the pipe using a flow rate equation and the plurality of pressure measurements.
