"Practice of Decline Curve Analysis"
Abstract
The idea of fitting a straight line through a bunch of data points can seem deceptively simple, but decline curve analysis should be much more than a curve-fitting exercise. Though it is by far the most common of reserve determination methods, its theory is widely misunderstood and its implementation is often haphazard. Mr. Purvis will talk from his decades of experience about what makes for effective, efficient and insightful analysis of decline curves.
