Abstract

A method for estimating an injection profile in function of the depth of a well include performing, when the well is initially filled with an initial fluid: a well closing phase wherein a first fluid is injected at a first end of the well until said first fluid reaches a second end of the well, said first fluid having a higher viscosity than the initial fluid; and a well opening phase wherein a second fluid is injected at the first end until said second fluid reaches the second end, said first fluid having a higher viscosity than the second fluid. The method further comprises measuring at least one temporal injection profile and estimating the depth injection profile of the well based on the at least one temporal injection profile.
