Abstract:Shale reservoirs are highly complex and are difficult to study using conventional reservoir simulation tools. This study introduces a novel methodology for estimating production from complex shale gas reservoirs by coupling decline curve analysis (DCA) with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. The proposed method uses exponential DCA to analyze production data from a dual porosity–permeability shale gas transport model. These complexities include fracture characteristics, geomechanical properties, n… Show more
