Pressure-rate convolution and deconvolution response for fractured conventional and unconventional reservoirs using new decline rate model

Salam Al-Rbeawi Jalal Farhan Owayed

This paper introduces new approach for pressure-rate convolution and deconvolution analysis of multi-stages hydraulically fractured conventional and unconventional reservoirs. This approach demonstrates the impact of variable Sand face flow rate on reservoir performance. A new model for P/R deconvolution is used to convert pressure pulse from variable flow rate to single and constant rate response. The target of this study is fractal reservoirs with and without stimulated and unstimulated reservoir volume.
