Unconventional gas reservoirs, including coalbed methane (CBM), tight gas (TG) and shale
gas (SG), have become a significant source of hydrocarbon supply in North America, and …

In the last decade, numerous approaches, eg, analytical and semi-analytical pressure
solutions, production decline curve, reservoir-scale numerical models, have been used to …

Many naturally fractured reservoirs around the world have depleted significantly, and
improved-oil-recovery (IOR) processes are necessary for further development. Hence, the …

This paper presents an analytical trilinear-flow solution to simulate the pressure-transient
and production behaviors of fractured horizontal wells in unconventional shale reservoirs …

This paper presents a discussion of fractured-horizontal-well performance in millidarcy
permeability (conventional) and micro-to nanodarcy permeability (unconventional) …

The application of horizontal-well drilling and multistage fracturing has become a norm in
the industry to develop unconventional resources from ultratight formations. A complex …

Accurate modeling of hydrocarbon production is a necessary, yet challenging step for
economic exploitation of unconventional resources. One of the main challenges is to model …

This paper presents a discussion of fractured horizontal-well performance in conventional
(milli-Darcy permeability) and unconventional (micro-to nano-Darcy permeability) reservoirs …

A mathematical model is developed and used to discern the characteristic responses of a
multiply-fractured horizontal-well. A systematic discussion of pressure behaviors is given …

The increasing activities in tight reservoir exploitation through fractured wells have attracted
interests of pressure-transient analysis (PTA) for well-performance evaluation. The …
