STUDY OF PRESSURE BEHAVIOR OF LAYERED AND DUAL-POROSITY RESERVOIRS IN THE PRESENCE OF SKIN, WELLBORE STORAGE, AND PHASE SEGREGATION. Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • This paper presents a new analytical solution for pressure transient tests from layered reservoirs with or without crossflow. The analytical solution is for modeling layered reservoir systems with unsteady state or pseudosteady interlayer crossflow, commingled or stratified flow and even dual porosity systems with pseudosteady matrix to fracture transfer in the presence of skin, wellbore storage and phase segregation. Using an automatic history matching approach, we analyzed two buildup tests with the new layered reservoir model. This automatic history matching technique has made it possible to accurately determine individual layer properties and wellbore parameters.
