The numerical density derivative approach is used to measure fluid densities around the wellbore and to generate pressure equivalent for each phase using simplified pressure-density correlation. While statistical derivative method determines fluid phase permeabilities and also average effective permeability for a given reservoir system with new empirical model. Both methods were only tested in conventional oil and gas reservoir system. This study introduces a new mathematical model for interpreting pressures behavior of a vertical well with cross form fracture in shale gas reservoir using numerical density approach. In this case, the imposed fractures can be longitudinal and transverse but symmetrical to a reference point (the wellbore). The major advantage is that it simplified the complex fracture-matrix flow equation by applying ordinary laplace transform model OLTM to formulate li.. View More»
