Packer Test Calculation
Packer Test Calculation
(OP)
Hi guys,
I was required to carry out some packer test in the field recently and just wondering if anyone has a program/excel spreadsheet handy to interpret/compute the data?

I just wonder why no one seems, anymore, to want to do these (calcuations, in general) by hand . . . -

sorry, ghtony, I don't have a spreadsheet for your needs, I've always done them by hand and so does our engineering geologist who is in the throes of a good many of them at present.
RE: Packer Test Calculation
But certainly hand calcs are good as well considering more and more young engineers can GET the so called correct results by running computers without a true appreciation of the theory behind it.
Thanks for your comment anyway.

By the way, if you are putting this in a report, why does the client need a pretty spreadsheet? Going back to my early days (before desktop computers), we had some pretty good draftsmen who could take the data (or stratigraphic section) and make a better and more "soulful" rendition that any autocad drawing I have ever seen . . . See the figures in Terzaghi and Peck, in Tschebotarioff, Krynine and Judd for instance.
