Abstract
Blasingame production decline is an effective method to obtain permeability and single-well controlled reserves. The accurate Blasingame production decline curve needs an accurate wellbore pressure approximate solution of the real-time domain. Therefore, the aim of this study is to present a simple and [...] Read more.
Blasingame production decline is an effective method to obtain permeability and single-well controlled reserves. The accurate Blasingame production decline curve needs an accurate wellbore pressure approximate solution of the real-time domain. Therefore, the aim of this study is to present a simple and accurate wellbore pressure approximate solution and Blasingame production decline curves calculation method of a multi-stage fractured horizontal well (MFHW) with complex fractures. A semi-analytical model of MFHWs in circle-closed reservoirs is presented. The wellbore pressure and dimensionless pseudo-steady productivity index JDpss (1/bDpss) are verified with a numerical solution. The comparison result reaches a good match. Wellbore pressure and Blasingame production decline curves are used to analyze parameter sensitivity. Results show that when the crossflow from matrix to natural fracture appears after the pseudo-state flow regime, the value of the inter-porosity coefficient has an obvious influence on the pressure approximate solution of the pseudo-steady flow regime in naturally fractured gas reservoirs. The effects of relevant parameters on wellbore pressure and the Blasingame decline curve are also analyzed. The method of pseudo-steady productivity index JDpss can applied to all well and reservoir models. Full article

The pseudosteady state productivity index is very important for evaluating the production from oil and gas wells. It is usually used as an objective function for the optimization of fractured wells. However, there is no analytical solution for it, especially when the proppant number of the fractured well is greater than 0.1. This paper extends the established fitting solution for proppant numbers less than 0.1 by introducing an explicit expression of the shape factor. It also proposes a new asymptotic solution based on the trilinear-flow model for proppant numbers greater than 0.1. The two solutions are combined to evaluate the pseudosteady state productivity index. The evaluation results are verified by the numerical method. The new solution can be directly used for fracture geometry optimization. The optimization results are consistent with those given by the unified fracture design (UFD) method. Using the analytical solution for the pseudosteady state productivity index, optimization results can be obtained for rectangular drainage areas with arbitrary aspect ratios without requiring any interpolation or extrapolation. Moreover, the new solution provides more rigorous optimization results than the UFD method, especially for fractured horizontal wells. Full article
