| Abstract: | A new accurate approximation for the well function for instantaneous charge of water for large diameter wells is proposed. Using this approximation with an optimization method, storage coefficient and transmissivity are estimated from slug test data on large diameter wells. The proposed method is void of the subjectivity of curve matching procedure. |
