oa Representation of Fractured Wells to Numerical Modeling Post-Fracturing Production from Tight Reservoirs

The work presents a comparison study of different approaches to numerical modeling fractured wells in tight reservoirs. The simulation results were compared against the analytical solutions for an infinite and finite conductivity vertical fracture. The own method which combines elements of known approaches has been verified as advantageous in terms of compromise between the simulation accuracy and number of needed gridblocks.
