Research Progress on Fracturing Well Testing Models

With the advancement of industrialization, China's demand for various resources continues to grow, with the demand for oil and gas resources being particularly prominent. Conventional oil and gas resources can no longer meet the needs of social development; in the face of this situation, the efficient development of unconventional oil and gas has become an important solution to the current resource demand issue.The efficient development of unconventional resources usually requires fracturing stimulation of oil and gas wells. To evaluate fracturing effects and invert post-fracturing formation information, an accurate fractured seepage model is indispensable. This paper conducted a detailed investigation on the seepage models of fractured vertical wells and fractured horizontal wells, identified the existing problems of these current models, and proposed their potential development directions in the future, thereby providing research insights for relevant researchers.

Abstract

With the advancement of industrialization, China's demand for various resources continues to grow, with the demand for oil and gas resources being particularly prominent. Conventional oil and gas resources can no longer meet the needs of social development; in the face of this situation, the efficient development of unconventional oil and gas has become an important solution to the current resource demand issue.The efficient development of unconventional resources usually requires fracturing stimulation of oil and gas wells. To evaluate fracturing effects and invert post-fracturing formation information, an accurate fractured seepage model is indispensable. This paper conducted a detailed investigation on the seepage models of fractured vertical wells and fractured horizontal wells, identified the existing problems of these current models, and proposed their potential development directions in the future, thereby providing research insights for relevant researchers.
