Abstract: The Vogel parameter values of different inclinations in different IPR equations are given by using six types of IPR equations and re-matching the generated data from the reservoir simulator of Literature [1]. The values analysis shows that Winggins-Russell-Jennings equation is the best, Klins-Majcher equation is good, Vogel equation is poor, and Fetkovich, Harrison and Bendakhlia-Aziz equations are the worst in matching accuracy, indicating Winggins-Russell-Jennings equation and Klins-Majcher equation are better used for describing the IPR equation of different inclinations than Vogel equation, while Fetkovich, Harrison and Bendakhlia-Aziz equations are of poor applicability.
