... time. The model developed is supported by a laboratory test program of granular filter media to determine the various pore blocking mechanisms present during well start up. The results of this work indicate that impairment of the granular filter media is a function of flow rate, particle concentration...

.... In this connection, a method for interpretation of pressure build-up curve has been elaborated, allowing to increase accuracy in determination of formation and bottom-hole zone filtration parameters. This is achieved by combined consideration of wellbore storage and prehistory of filtration using numerical methods...

... cores represent more consolidated part of the reservoir rocks, because less consolidated cores were destroyed during the recovery from wells. The permeability decrement should be higher for less consolidated rocks. Therefore, it should be expected that the laboratory determined compressibility factor...

... deposition is commonly referred to as the filtration coefficient. The filtration coefficient is a dynamic quantity and changes with the number of previously deposited particles. Many investigators have carried out extensive theoretical and experimental work aimed at determining the filtration coefficient...
