DIMENSIONLESS PRESSURE AND PRESSURE DERIVATIVE RESPONSES OF A HORIZONTAL WELL IN A RESERVIOR WITH IMPERMEABLE BOUNDARIES INCLINED AT RIGHT ANGLE

ABSTRACT

This study investigates the time-dependent behaviour of pressure (pressure derivative) in a horizontal well drilled between 90-degree slanted sealing faults. They analyse these pressures using a unique method called the dimensionless approach in place of taking actual measurements. This aids in the comprehension of the initial (transient) and longterm (infinite-acting) behaviour of pressure in these intricate circumstances. The well condition (skin factor), storage capacity (wellbore storage), and the well's distance from the faults were among the many variables that the researchers took into account when creating models and performing computations using superposition principles to simulate pressure responses. The intricate interactions between these variables and their effects on pressure were examined through the examination of various scenarios, or cases. By streamlining the process of removing resources from subterranean reservoirs, this knowledge can increase the output of oil and gas.
