Inflow Performance Relationship
Inflow Performance Relationship is a curve of producing rates plotted against well bottomhole pressures for oil, water and gas wells[1].
IPR curve shows productive capacity and well performance.
IPR curve is used in Well Nodal Analysis for production systems design, analysis and optimization.
Math and Physics
Oil well IPR equation
- Darcy's law equation for the single-phase flow of incompressible liquid:
- Vogel's IPR two-phase flow equation (oil + gas) and it's combination with single phase liquid.
- Composite IPR curve for oil wells producing water.
- 3 Phase IPR three-phase flow equation (oil + gas + water).
Gas well IPR equation
- Darcy's law gas inflow equation:
- C and n equation
IPR calculator software
- PQplot nodal analysis software is used to calculate the IPR curves. PQplot is available online at www.pengtools.com.
- Excel
- other
