Three-phase Inflow Performance Relationship

3 Phase IPR Curve [1]

3 Phase IPR is an IPR curve calculated on the basis of total barrels of produced fluid, including gas.

3 Phase IPR curve is used in Pump Design software for pump sizing.

Math and Physics

The volume of 1 stb of liquid plus associated gas at any pressure and temperature is given by[1]:

 VF=WCUT\ B_w + (1-WCUT)\ B_o + (GLR\ - (1-WCUT)R_s - WCUT\ R_{sw})B_g [1]


The total volume of produced fluid rate (liquid plus gas) at any conditions of pressure and temperature:

 V=q_{t_{sc}} \times VF [1]

 q_{t_{sc}} is calculated as usual using:

3 Phase IPR calculation example

Following the well #1 example given by Brown[1]on Figure 5.8, page 191:
