Analysis and Application of Fractured Carbonate Dual-Media Composite Reservoir Model by Heng Song, Yuan Hu, Erhui Luo, Congge He, Xing Zeng, Shaoqi Zhang

“…The model can be applied to formations with different reservoir properties in the near-well and far-well areas around a single well to analyze the fracture parameters (elastic reserve ratio and channeling coefficient) and the effective flow capacity of formation fluids in the two areas. On this basis, we use the interpretation of actual production wells to verify the accuracy of the model and analyze the influence of reservoir parameters and fracture parameters on the theoretical curve.…”
