Techniques for modelling a production forecast for a well are described. In one embodiment, a method includes calibrating a geological reservoir model by analyzing pressure transient well tests, fitting the geological reservoir model to pressure data to estimate model parameters, and building a simulated history of bottom hole pressure based on the model and measured transient flow data. The calibrating may further include fitting the model to flow rate data, using measured and simulated pressure data as input, to estimate model parameters, and then building a simulated history of downhole flow rate based on the model and change in measured pressure data. The calibrated model can be used to forecast future Well production. Additional methods, systems, and devices are also disclosed. |
