nSights

nSights provides state-of-the-art well-test capabilities for analyzing hydraulic and gas tests conducted in complex test environments. nSights features and capabilities include:

• Multiple conceptual models
  -Dual porosity, leakage (from above and/or below), well-bore skin (enhancement or damage)
  -Flow dimension capability allows for interpretation/analysis of non-radial flow such as fracture systems
  
  
• Numeric simulator
  -Compensates for non-ideal test procedures such as pumping rate changes
  -Allows incorporation of long-term pre-test pressure histories
  -Supports combinations of conceptual models not supported by analytic techniques (e.g. dual porosity aquifer with leakage)
  
  
• Advanced graphical analysis techniques
  - Derivative plots, decline plots, pulse/slug and flow dimension analysis
  -Advanced derivative calculation for noisy field data
  -Time and space superposition
  
  
• Optimization (inverse modeling)
  - Automatic fitting of field data with Levenberg-Marquadt and Simplex methods
  -Multiple constraints (e.g fit derivative & cartesian results, fit results from multiple observation wells simultaneously)
  -Advanced statistical processing for confidence region estimation
  -Can incorporate Latin Hyper-Cube or Monte-Carlo sampling of uncertain parameters to determine range/distribution of possible hydraulic parameters
  
  
• Data pre-/post-processing
  -Extensive facilities for importing, cleaning and processing field data
  -Report quality 2D and 3D plotting routines
  

nSights has been developed by Intera staff for Sandia National Laboratories in support of the WIPP program. Intera provides assistance with nSights license acquisition, product support and training.
