Well-controlled area seepage law and disturbance degree between production wells prediction of tight gas reservoir: a case study of Sulige gas field, Ordos Basin, NW China

Based on a sum of well test interpretation analysis, the flowage characteristics of the gas in reservoir were analyzed from physical parameters and double-logarithm curve characteristics of gas wells. The result showed that the permeability of gas well-fracturing area is greatly improved, which is the main area to provide productivity. The speed of pressure transmission was slow because of extremely low permeability of outside the fracturing area and fluid flow was dominated by a linear flow. And three common well test interpretation models were extracted. The characteristics of bi-zonal compound reservoir of gas wells were specified by combination with peripheral supply and pressure change characteristics of gas wells. Variations of reservoir pressure and flowing bottom-hole pressure with time were simulated and quantified under different physical parameters and daily production. And the rational proration scheme of gas production wells was established by integration with numerical simulation method. Numerical simulation results of 21 sets of well patterns showed that there were two recovery inflection points. And a new model was built to research well interference degree that was defined by a new and original mathematical expression about production. The result showed that the infill well pattern should be controlled at 500 m × (500–600) m.
