Parametric Pulsing of Oil and Gas Reservoirs-An Evaluation of the Merits

The paper is a discussion of the thesis set out by M.R. Tek et al. in ''Parametric Pulsing--A New Approach to Increased Gas Field Deliverability'' (PA 135,177). The merits of parametric pulsing are investigated for single-phase flow. Both analytical and numerical results show that for this case reservoir performance is not enhanced by alternating production and shut-in periods.
