Injectivity Test
A procedure conducted to establish the rate and pressure at which fluids can be pumped into the
treatment target without fracturing the formation. Most stimulation treatments and remedial repairs, such
as squeeze cementing, are performed following an injection test to help determine the key treatment
parameters and operating limits. Likewise, injection tests are also conducted when pumping
secondary recovery fluids such as water, nitrogen [N2], carbon dioxide [CO2], natural gas andsteam.
