The Moving Boundary Movement of Vertical Fractured Well in Tight Oil Reservoir

Article Preview

Abstract:

Because of the obvious non-Darcy characteristic of fluid flowing in tight reservoirs, there is a virtual moving boundary at the flow edge, and these percolation models of fractured wells with Darcy formula are no longer applicable. Based on the threshold pressure gradient effect, the unsteady seepage flow model of vertical fractured well was established in the drain area by means of Source and Green's Functions. With the flow characteristics at the boundary of tight reservoir, the motion equation of axes of moving boundary was obtained. By Example analysis, its proved that the moving boundary is approximate circular in the far-field, and it will move slower with the increase of the threshold pressure gradient.
