Chapter 1 introduces the discipline and its connections with other areas of petroleum engineering. Chapters 2 through 5 address steady-state flow and its various complexities: Darcy’s equation and its limitations (Chapter 2); flow geometries and skin factor concepts (Chapter 3); compressible oil and gas flow (Chapter 4); and non-horizontal flow using the flow potential concept (Chapter 5). In Chapter 6, the pressure diffusivity equation is explored alongside key concepts of radius of investigation and average reservoir pressure. Chapter 7 delves into the pseudo-steady-state (PSS) flow regime, its applications in multi-well drainage, and its relationship with well productivity index, inflow performance relationship, vertical flow performance, and nodal analysis. The final chapters focus on transient radial flow and its applications in well testing. Chapter 8 introduces transient drawdown analysis. Chapter 9 discusses the superposition principle in time and space, with application to the modeling of sealing faults and buildup test analysis. To enhance engagement and learning, each chapter includes quiz questions - primarily in a True/False format - with answers provided at the end of the book. Additionally, numerous examples are integrated throughout to demonstrate the practical significance of the concepts and their relevance to reservoir engineering practice.","contributors":[{"id":7427,"contribution":"Author","primary":true,"corporate":false,"title":null,"first_name":"Mehdi","middle_name":null,"last_name":"Zeidouni","location":"Louisiana State University","background_text":""}],"subjects":[{"id":13,"name":"Engineering \u0026 Technology","parent_subject_id":null,"call_number":"TA145","visible_textbooks_count":119,"url":"https://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/subjects/engineering"}],"publishers":[{"id":1787,"url":"https://repository.lsu.edu/","year":2025,"created_at":"2025-04-10T22:05:36.000-05:00","updated_at":"2025-04-10T22:07:01.000-05:00","name":"Louisiana State University"}],"formats":[{"id":4653,"type":"PDF","url":"https://repository.lsu.edu/etext/4/","price":{"cents":0,"currency_iso":"USD"},"isbn":null}],"rating":null,"textbook_reviews_count":0,"reviews":[],"url":"https://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/petroleum-reservoir-dynamics","updated_at":"2026-05-18T02:02:34.000-05:00"}}
