Regarding any hydrocarbon reservoir, the most important question that needs to be answered is production capacity. During production, the achievable fluid rate depends both on the properties of the reservoir as well as the pressure difference (drawdown [1]) between well and reservoir. From the petrophysical point of view, many effects restrict fluid flow in the porous system (pore size distribution, wettability properties, saturations etc.) resulting in the obtainable fluid rate corresponding to the existing drawd...
