Darcy's law can be applied to an ideal well model producing a constant steady-state production rate. The model assumes cylindrical flow in the reservoir where flow across the formation is horizontal and fluid moves radially toward the wellbore. It also assumes constant pay zone thickness, constant isotropic permeability, and an ideal liquid (homogeneous incompressible liquid in which viscosity is pressure independent).
