Open flow. After the packers were set, if there was a positive pressure at the collar of the hole, it <br />was allowed to flow. The flow rate was measured, and measurements continued until a stable flow <br />was reached. For very low permeability rock, there was essentially no flow. <br />2. Initial shut-in. After the flow measurement, the system was de-aired, the flow valve was shut, and <br />the pressure was allowed to rise towards its equilibrium state. <br />3. Injection. After the shut-in test, the valve to the hand pump was opened, and water was injected to <br />the packer stem using the hand pump. Enough water was injected to raise the water pressure in the <br />stem significantly above the expected equilibrium pressure. The volume of water injected was <br />monitored and recorded (number of strokes times stroke volume), along with the resultant pressure <br />change. <br />4. Falling head test. Following the injection of the water from the pump, the flow valve was shut, and <br />pressure in the packer stem was monitored as it decreased towards the equilibrium pressure. <br />5. Bleed-off. After the pressure had approached equilibrium, the remaining pressure was bled from <br />the system rapidly, taking two or three steps to return the pressure to zero (Figure 3).
