An analytical solution of pressure-transient behavior for a line-source, constant-rate well in this type of reservoir configuration is obtained with Fourier space transformation and Laplace transformation. By applying Duhamel principle, the wellbore storage and skins effects can easily be included. A set of type curves are generated and the sensitivities of the relevant parameters are discussed. A new correlating parameter MhDl√ηD is proposed to identify the pressure response in the pressure derivative curve. The model as well as the corresponding type curves are quite general that they are useful in predicting the production performance or analyzing the production data from this type of well-reservoir systems.展开更多

An analytical solution in the Laplace space for the pressure-transient behavior for a line-source, constant-rate well of this type of reservoir is obtained with the Laplace transformation and the perturbation technique. The pressure and its derivative in the reservoir and the effects of relevant parameters on the pressure-transient response are obtained. The model as well as the corresponding type curves may be used in predicting the production performance or analyzing the production data for this type of reservoir.展开更多

The model can be solved using the Laplace conversion method. The dimensionless bottom hole pressure can be obtained using the Stehfest numerical inversion method. The bi-logarithmic type curves for the trce-shaped fractal reservoirs are thus obtained. The pressure transient responses under different fractal factors are discussed. The factors with a primary effect on the inter-porosity flow regime include the initial branch number N, the length ratio α, and the branch angle θ. The diameter ratio β has a significant effect on the fracture radial flow, the inter-porosity and the total system radial flow regimes. The total branch level M of the network mainly influences the total system radial flow regime. The model presented in this paper provides a new methodology for analyzing and predicting the pressure dynamic characteristics of naturally fractured reservoirs.展开更多
