What is DST (Drill Stem Testing)?

A drill stem test (DST) is a procedure for isolating and testing the pressure, permeability and productive capacity of a geological formation during the drilling of a well. The test is an important measurement of pressure behavior at the drill stem and is a valuable way of obtaining information on the formation fluid and establishing whether a well has found a commercial hydrocarbon reservoir.

Excellent video! Thanks for sharing it. I'm a wel-test professor and I really loved this video. :)
