Three-phase Inflow Performance Relationship

3 Phase IPR Curve [1]

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

Total flow rate equations:

For Pb < Pwf < Pr

For pressures between reservoir pressure and bubble point pressure:

 q_t =J (P_r - P_{wf})

For PwfG < Pwf < Pb

For pressures between the bubble point pressure and the flowing bottom-hole pressures:

 q_t =\frac{-C+\sqrt{C^2-4B^2D}}{2B^2}\ for B \ne 0
 q_t =D/C\ for B = 0

where:

 A=\frac{P_{wf}+0.125F_oP_b-F_wP_r}{0.125F_oP_b}
 B=\frac{F_w}{0.125F_oP_bJ}
 C=2AB+\frac{80}{q_{o_{max}}-q_b}
 D=A^2-80\frac{q_b}{q_{o_{max}}-q_b}-81

0 < Pwf < For PwfG
