Drill Stem Test (DST) Data and Image

IHS Drill Stem Test (DST) Data and Image provides the industry's most complete, current and accurate data and image sets for oil and gas reservoirs and formations in open well bores in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. This resource enables engineers to evaluate a reservoir's or a formation's:

• Potential productivity 
• Pressure 
• Permeability 
• Capacity

IHS DST Data is linked to the IHS Well Production and IHS Interpreted Formation Tops datasets so you can assess a reservoir's or a formation's complete geological configuration.

Subscribers received access to:

• IHS Drill Stem Test (DST) Data 
• IHS DST Image 
• IHS Initial Production Test

Benefits: 

IHS Drill Stem Test (DST) Data and Image enables you to:

• Evaluate a reservoir's or formation's potential and capacity 
• Make decisions early on in the process about a reservoir's future development 
• Plan well completion

IHS Drill Stem Test (DST) Data undergoes rigorous screening to assure you receive accurate numbers. Our experts verify depths against well data information, know the habits of the testing companies, check the validity of the recorders, and ensure pressures match test increments.  

IHS Drill Stem Test (DST) Data includes:

• Basic test data 
• Mud and cushion data 
• Recorder data 
• Permeability 
• Quality codes 
• Drill collar and drill pipe data 
• HORNER extrapolated pressures and slopes 
• PMAX 
• Blow descriptions 
• Formation damage 
• Recoveries 
• Pressure increments 
• Flow increments

DST Image viewer has earned wide recognition as the leading provider of comprehensive DST charts for the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin because of its historical content and image quality.

 
This is a wrap-around DST chart which reveals plugging during the main flow and an invalid FSI. (The recovery = 180 ft gassified drilling mud and 200 ft of sulphurous water. Gas = TSTM)

Initial Production Test generally runs longer than DSTs. Engineers use the results to determine a well's capability under various degrees of pressure drawdown and to help select a production method.

Initial Production Test includes digital and manual sources for:

• Flow capacity 
• Formation pressures
