Rate Decline Analysis of Horizontal Wells with Multiple Variable Conductivity and Uneven Distributed Fractures by Yunpeng Hu, Ziyun Cheng, Wei Ding, Xiaoling Zhang, Liangchao Qu, Chunliu Sun, Penghui Su, Wenqi Zhang

“…The calculative results show that the smaller the fracture spacing is, the earlier the fracture begins to decline, the more the production will decrease; the change of different fracture length with the total fracture length unchanged has almost no effect on the production; the angle between fracture and x-axis has an important effect on the production; the smaller the angle between fracture and x-axis is, the stronger the interference between fractures is, the higher the production; the initial fracture conductivity affects the early production behavior, and the higher the initial fracture conductivity, the higher the production; the larger the fracture declines index, the lower the production, but the decreasing range gradually decreases with the increase of the decline index; the larger the reservoir drainage radius, the later the energy depletion stage, the higher the production. …”
