Abstract

A method for evaluating a gas well productivity with eliminating an influence of liquid loading includes steps of: collecting basic data of a liquid loading gas well; according to a relative density of natural gas, a formation depth, and a casing pressure during a productivity test, determining a pressure generated by a static gas column in an annular space between a casing and a tubing from a well head to a bottomhole of the gas well, and obtaining a bottomhole pressure without liquid loading; according to a pseudo-pressure of a formation pore pressure, pseudo-pressures of the bottomhole pressure respectively under the conditions of liquid loading and no liquid loading, and a production rate under the condition of liquid loading, determining a production rate without liquid loading, and determining an absolute open flow rate with eliminating the influence of liquid loading.
