This study presents a case history, and also provides guidelines for performing a reservoir study, in particular, a material balance analysis. The study involved manipulating a complex material balance equation into forms which isolated certain input parameters. The forms were used graphically not only to estimate the OGIP, but also to verify those parameters used in the analysis. Production decline curves were used in conjunction with the material balance equation to predict future reservoir performance. Theoretical recovery calculations justified the future predictions.
