Temporal and Spatial Anomalous Diffusion Flow Mechanisms in Structurally Complex Porous Media: The Impact on Pressure Behavior, Flow Regimes, and Productivity Index

Abstract

Abstract The main objective of this paper is understanding the phenomenal anomalous diffusion flow mechanisms in unconventional fractured porous media. This understanding is crucial for estimating the impact of these flow mechanisms on pressure behavior, flow regimes, and transient and pseudo-steady state productivity index of the two cases of inner wellbore conditions: constant sandface flow rate and constant wellbore pressure. The targets are hydraulically fractured unconventional reservoirs c…
