New Understanding of Transient Pressure Response in the Transition Zone of Oil-Water and Gas-Water Systems by Wenbin Xu, Zhihui Liu, Jie Liu, Yongfei Yang

“…This is particularly true when transient pressure is derived during the field development phase, for example, from permanent down-hole gauge (PDG), where outer boundary condition such as an active aquifer with a transition zone above it plays a big role in dominating the late time pressure response. In this case, capillary pressure and the total mobility in the transition zone have significant effect on the pressure response. …”
