520			_aCurrently in Lake Maracaibo there are nearly 2000 wells on Intermittent Gas Lift (IGL) with an average production of 150 BPD, so a method to estimate the IPR curves in such wells is necessary and important. Considering that in IGL the bottom hole flowing pressure is an instantaneous value continuously changing, then the correct and precise way to determine the IPR curve is through a production test along with a downhole pressure survey. However, many times this method is not economically convenient in highly depleted wells, as it does in a typical intermittent gas lift well. Since there is no publication reported on this subject, the purpose of this work is to get the equations that relate Vogel's model with field data for IGL wells and a numerical method to solve these equations in order to obtain an IPR estimation. Through these equations more realistic values can be obtained, and therefore a better match can be reached between simulators' outputs and field data. These equations will help the field engineer to properly analyze and design these types of wells.
