Abstract

This chapter discusses the quantitative use and applications of type curves in gas well test analysis. A new technique is presented to analyze data in the bilinear flow period and pressure analysis of fractured gas wells, and the problems in the analysis are reduced considerably with the use of these type curves. Bilinear flow ends when fracture tip effects are felt at the wellbore. Prefracture information about the reservoir is necessary to estimate fracture parameters. The type curve analysis method must be used simultaneously with the specific analysis methods to produce reliable results.
