Offshore low-permeability reservoirs are mainly composed of complex fault-block structures with poor physical properties, which makes establishing an effective displacement relationship particularly challenging. Hydraulic fracturing assisted oil displacement (HFAD) can effectively increase the oil production of a single well by creating fractures to replenish the producing energy. In this study, the Khristianovich-Geertsma-de Klerk (KGD) model is used to calculate the propagation of vertical fractures, and the flow tube method is used to calculate the two-phase oil-water flow in filtration and seepage.
