Pseudo-steady state productivity of horizontal wells - Method 3

Input(s)

μo\mu_{o}: Viscosity of Oil (cP)(\mathrm{cP})

sxs_{x}: Skin Factor (dimensionless)

h\mathrm{h}: Thickness of Reservoir (ft)

kvk_{v}: Vertical Permeability (mD)(\mathrm{mD})

khk_{h}: Horizontal Permeability (mD)(\mathrm{mD})

F: Dimensionless Function ( ft\mathrm{ft} )

L: Length of Fracture (ft)

Output(s)

JhJ_{h}: Pseudo-steady State Productivity of Horizontal Wells (bbl/day psi)

Formula(s)

Jh=khh70.6μoF+(h0.5L)(khkv)0.5sxJ_{h}=k_{h} * \frac{\frac{h}{70.6 * \mu_{o}}}{F+\left(\frac{h}{0.5 * L}\right) *\left(\frac{k_{h}}{k_{v}}\right)^{0.5} * s_{x}}
