Name Well_Test_Interpretation
Entity Type Table
Description An interpretation of the data acquired during a well test. An interpretation generally results in the generation of characteristics for the well, or well completion and/or characteristics of the region within the radius of investigation of the well test. Note that an interpretation does not store characteristics of the material that is being tested.
