Single-Well Simulation for Horizontal Wells in Fractured Gas Condensate Reservoirs.

Fractured gas condensate reservoirs (FGCR) are a complex, special, and highly valuable type of gas reservoir, accounting for a significant proportion of gas reservoir development. In recent years, with the continuous advancement of horizontal well technology, it has become the main approach for the development of FGCR. The current model is unable to accurately represent the fluid distribution in the near-well area of horizontal wells due to the unique retrograde condensation phenomenon in GCR.

Semianalytical Modeling for Multiphase Flow in a Fractured Low-Permeability Gas Condensate Reservoir.

During the production of fractured low-permeability gas condensate reservoir (FLPGCR), a phase transition takes place in both the formation and wellbore, resulting in multiphase flow when the pressure drops below the dew point pressure. Additionally, the presence of fractures causes the formation of stress-sensitive characteristics. Nevertheless, traditional analytical models, such as the two-region model or three-region model, overlook the coupling impact of the above factors, which could lead to incorrect pressure transient response and erroneous estimation of well and formation parameters.
