A Novel Dynamic Splitting Method for Production Based on Material Balance Theory and Catastrophe Theory in Tight Gas Reservoirs by Shengye Hao, Xinyu Qiu, Pengcheng Liu, Xiaoxia Chen

“…This method is based on two primary methods, which are the multifactor static method for production splitting of gas (GPSM) and water (WPSM) and use the catastrophe theory and material balance equation (MBE) and obtain the final results by iterative method. The advantage of this method is that more accurate results in the production process are obtained by selecting eight factors, which contain 6 static factors and 2 dynamic factors, for research. …”
