Slope of Horner plot in pressure buildup test

Input(s)

$Q_{o}$: Stabilized Well Flow Rate before Shut-in (STB/day)

$\mu_{o}$: Oil Viscosity (cP)

$B_{o}$: Oil Formation Volume Factor (bbl/STB)

$\mathrm{k}$: Permeability $(\mathrm{mD})$

$\mathrm{h}$: Thickness $(\mathrm{ft})$

Output(s)

m: Slope (psi/cycle)

Formula(s)

$$ m=\frac{162.6 * Q_{o} * \mu_{o} * B_{o}}{k * h} $$
