Transient Pressure Analysis in Strip Reservoirs With Linear Skin Discontinuities
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Discontinuities in reservoirs are important considerations when analysing pressure draw-down and buildup tests. The (changes exhibited in test results can reveal important geometrical features of the reservoir boundary. And, based on the pressure transient analysis, conclusions as to the preferred treatment of the reservoir can be drawn. A mathematical model of analysing pressure transient tests for linear skin discontinuities is presented. The case of a ! reservoir which is unbounded horizontally in one direction and bounded with impermeable barriers vertically and containing a linear skin discontinuity is proposed. The problem is solved using the two dimensional diffusion equation with successive integral transformations.Confirmation of the solution is demonstrated by the early time line source pressure response and the late time linear flow pressure response. Application to well testing can be made with superposition of the constant rate fluid production and with matching times to events such as fluid barriers with the solutions.
