Transient Pressure Analysis of Pressure Sensitive Naturally Fractured Reservoirs
This paper presents the results of a study with the main aim of investigating the effect of considering the pressure sensitivity of the natural fractures of a fissured formation on the transient pressure analysis of well tests. Two motivations for this study were as follows. First, many (or most in some cases) of the producing reservoirs (geothermal and petroleum) are naturally fractured, showi...
متن کاملPerformance Model for Vertical Wells with Multi-stage Horizontal Hydraulic Fractures in Water Flooded Multilayer Reservoirs
For the characteristics of horizontal fractures in shallow low-permeability oil layers after hydraulic fracturing in multilayer reservoirs, horizontal fractures are taken equivalent to an elliptical cylinder with the reservoir thickness using the equivalent permeability model; then, upon the elliptic seepage theory, the seepage field which has led by a vertical well with horizontal fractures is...
متن کاملHydraulic Fracturing of Naturally Fractured Reservoirs
A carefully engineered stimulation that makes use of opening mode fractures is an effective way to reduce injection and production impedance and provide better access for the fluid to enter and promote shearing in the main reservoir volume. We present results from field experiments that mapped the fracture geometry for opening mode hydraulic fractures formed in naturally fractured crystalline r...
متن کاملThe Geomechanical Interaction of Multiple Hydraulic Fractures in Horizontal Wells
The technology of multiple hydraulic fracture stimulation in horizontal wells has trans‐ formed the business of oil and gas exploitation from extremely tight, unconventional hydro‐ carbon bearing rock formations. The fracture stimulation process typically involves placing multiple fractures stage-by-stage along the horizontal well using diverse well completion technologies. The effective design...
متن کاملEfficient simulation of hydraulic fractured wells in unconventional reservoirs
Reservoir simulators remain essential tools for improved reservoir management in order to optimize hydraulic fracturing design in unconventional low permeability reservoirs. However, the commonly-used simulator requires too much computational efforts for the description of local phenomena in the vicinity of the hydraulic fractures, and is practically infeasible for field applications, due to la...
