英文摘要abstract: Pseudo-steady state (PSS) flow is an important time-dependent flow regime that quickly follows the initial transient flow regime in the constant-rate production of a closed boundary hydrocarbon reservoir. The characterization of the PSS flow regime is of importance in describing the reservoir pressure distribution as well as the productivity index (PI) of the flow regime. The PI describes the production potential of the well and is often used in fracture optimization and production-rate decline analysis. In 2016, Chen determined the exact analytical solution for PSS flow of a fully penetrated vertically fractured well with finite fracture conductivity for reservoirs of elliptical shape. The present work aimed to expand Chen’s exact analytical solution to commonly encountered reservoirs geometries including rectangular, rhomboid, and triangular by introducing respective shape factors generated from extensive computational modeling studies based on an identical drainage area assumption. The aforementioned shape factors were generated and characterized as functions for use in spreadsheet calculations as well as graphical format for simplistic in-field look-up use. Demonstrative use of the shape factors for over 20 additional simulations showed high fidelity of the shape factor to accurately predict (mean average percentage error remained under 1.5 %) the true PSS constant by modulating Chen’s solution for elliptical reservoirs. The methodology of the shape factor generation lays the ground work for more extensive and specific shape factors to be generated for cases such as non-concentric wells and other geometries not studied.
