Abstract

In Kuqa fractured gas reservoirs, the heterogeneity is strong, the seepage mechanism is complex. There is no well testing dynamic data to support the research of the developed law of natural fracture, the connectivity and conductivity of wells, and reservoir parameters such as energy storage ratio and streaming coefficient, which brings difficulty to development well deployment and development plan adjustment. To solve the above problems, 50 wells were conducted well interference testing and pressure build-up testing in Kuqa area. With full consideration of various unfavorable geological factors, high-quality well interference testing data is collected when the whole gas reservoir well shut-in, the innovative method of well interference testing data interpretation solves the problem about reservoir seepage mechanism and inter-well connected law, and contribute to the dynamic understanding of fractured gas reservoirs.
