The hydraulic profiling tool (HPT) is widely used to generate profiles of relative permeability vs. depth. In this work, prior numerical modeling results are used to develop a relationship between probe advance rate V (cm/s), probe diameter D (cm), water injection rate Q (mL/min), corrected pressure P_c (psi), and hydraulic conductivity K (feet/d)

where E is an empirically derived hydraulic efficiency factor. The relationship is validated by 23 HPT profiles that, after averaging K vertically, were similar to slug test results in adjoining monitoring wells. The best fit value of E for these profiles was 2.02. This equation provides a physically based approach for generating hydraulic conductivity profiles with HPT tooling.

一种基于物理的HPT压力和流量估算水力传导率的方法

液压轮廓分析工具（HPT）被广泛用于生成相对渗透率与深度的关系曲线。在这项工作中，使用先前的数值模拟结果来建立探头前进速度V（cm / s），探头直径D（cm），注水速度Q（mL / min），校正压力P _c（psi），和水力传导率K（英尺/天）

其中E是根据经验得出的水力效率因子。该关系通过23个HPT剖面进行了验证，该剖面在垂直平均K后与相邻监测井中的段塞测试结果相似。对于这些轮廓，E的最佳拟合值为2.02。该方程式提供了一种基于物理的方法，可通过HPT工具生成水力传导率曲线。
