Inflow and Outflow Well Performance

The article involves four main words inflow, outflow, well and performance. The words give the meaning of operation known as inflow and outflow well performance.

Inflow in field terminology means entering of fluid from reservoir (a pool or trap of oil/gas) into wellbore. Outflow in field terminology means flow of fluid from wellbore to separator (surface).

These two parameters are very much important to understand from basic to deep (understanding correlations) for petroleum engineer.

In system where two parameters (inflow and outflow) are put known as Nodal Analysis. In Nodal Analysis we basically generate curves for inflow and outflow of a well to understand well's behavior and ultimately its performance.

The imaginary/generalized graph for inflow and outflow performance understanding is as under.
