Abstract
Multilayer commingled production is an important development method for most hydrocarbon reservoirs because there are multiple profitable production layers vertically. Commingled production method can not only reduce drilling cost, but also improve hydrocarbon reservoir recovery. The investigation of gas production characteristics of multilayer commingled production in gas reservoirs can not only reflect the effect of interlayer heterogeneity on the percolation law, but also reveals the reserves mobility and gas production capacity of different gas layers. However, the differences in petrophysical properties, temperature and pressure conditions, gas saturation, effective thickness and geometric parameters of different gas layers make the gas production characteristics of each layer complicated during multilayer commingled production.
