Class Information
Number: 73/152.38
Name: Measuring and testing > Borehole or drilling (e.g., drill loading factor, drilling rate, rate of fluid flow) > Fluid flow measuring or fluid analysis > Steady state fluid flow interruption > Drawdown or shutin test
Description: Subject matter wherein a determination of the characteristic of the borehole, the casing, or the drill rigging is made by decreasing a liquid level or completely stopping the flow of the fluid as by the closing of a valve.
