After flowing a well over a stable period via a flow meter (test separator meter, orifice place, MPFM…), shutting-in the well with a surface or downhole valve for a finite time interval defines a well test. For a producer, pressure at the well builds up during a test: This is called a Pressure Build-Up (PBU)...
