Abstact: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Water coning is the occurrence of cone-shaped bottom water flow which heads into the lower perforation zone in a production well. Water coning problem is very important and always found in primary production reservoir. The presence of coning will reduce the productivity of oil production from reservoir. There were many methods found to solve water coning problem. The presence of water in perforation is not desired. One of the way to prevent the occurrence of water coning is to calculate the critical rate of oil. Critical oil rate represent the maximum allowable oil rate before the occurrence of coning. Some methods that commonly used in determining critical rate were Craft and Hawkins, Meyer, Gardner and Pirson, Chaperon, Schols, Hoyland et al, etc. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This paper proposes a new solution in determining critical oil rate that was derived with a simple and accurate validation using the first method. The equation that proposed in this paper obtained for isotropic reservoir, single phase oil, and bottom water with strong water drive <br />
