Vogel's Inflow Performance Relationship
Vogel's IPR is an empirical two-phase (oil + gas) inflow performance relationship correlation published in 1968 [1].
Vogel's IPR is based on computer simulations to several solution gas drive reservoirs for different fluid and reservoir relative permeability properties.
Vogel's IPR is the default IPR correlation for the oil wells in the PQplot.
Why Vogel's IPR?
Vogel's IPR solution has been found to be very good and is widely used in prediction of IPR curves.— Kermit Brown et al[2]
