EXAMPLE
If point N in Figure 1 is a well producing an oil
rate of 150 BPD, compute its flowing pressure
at 300 hours. The following information is

To perform superposition calculations the singlewell may be visualized as two wells located at the
same point, with one producing at rate q 1 from t = 0
to t and the second (imaginary) well, producing at
rate (q2-q1) starting at time t, and continuing for a
time period (t-t1).
Thus, the pressure drop at the single well is:
