DATA GATHERING, TRANSMISSION, INTEGRATION AND INTERPRETATION DURING COILED TUBING WELL TESTING OPERATIONS

摘要

A method for calculating a property of a formation using one or more sensors lowered into a well on coiled tubing and surface well testing equipment that includes recording flow rate data using the surface well testing equipment; recording downhole pressure data using the one or more sensors lowered into a wellbore penetrating the formation on coiled tubing; transmitting the flow rate and downhole pressure measurements to a server, wherein the server is capable of collecting, storing and retransmitting the measurements; and transmitting the measurements to a processing unit, wherein the processing unit analyzes the measurements and calculates a property of the formation. Also an apparatus for calculating a property of a formation that includes a coiled tubing unit having one or more sensors capable of being lowered into a wellbore and measuring downhole pressures; surface well testing equipment capable of measuring flow rate data; means for transmitting the downhole pressure and flow rate measurements to a server capable of collecting, storing, and retransmitting the measurement data; and means for transmitting the measurements to a processing unit capable of calculating the property of the formation. A related method of servicing a hydrocarbon well is also disclosed.
