Gas-Water Flow Behavior in Water-Bearing Tight Gas Reservoirs by Renyi Cao, Liyou Ye, Qihong Lei, Xinhua Chen, Y. Zee Ma, Xiao Huang

“…A numerical simulator using these models has been developed to improve the flow simulation accuracy for water-bearing tight gas reservoirs. The results show that the effect of stress sensitivity becomes larger as water saturation increases, leading to a fast decline of gas production; in addition, the nonlinear flow of gas phase is aggravated with the increase of water saturation and the decrease of permeability. …”
