Inflow Performance Relationship
IPR is a curve of producing rates plotted against well bottomhole pressures.
IPR curve shows productive capacity and performance of a well.
IPR curve is used in Nodal Analysis for production systems design, analysis and optimization.
Math and Physics
Oil well IPR equation
- Darcy's law inflow equation for the single phase incompressible liquid:
- Vogel IPR two phase equation (liquid + gas)
- Composite IPR
Gas well IPR equation
- Darcy's law gas inflow equation:
