Three-phase Inflow Performance Relationship
3 Phase IPR calculates IPR curve for oil wells producing water.
3 Phase IPR equation was derived by Petrobras based on combination of Vogel's IPR equation for oil flow and constant productivity for water flow [1].
3 Phase IPR curve is determined geometrically from those equations considering the fractional flow of oil and water [1].
Math and Physics
