Abstract

Shale is a growing prospect in this world with decreasing conventional sources of fossil fuel. With the growth in demand for natural gas, there is impending need for the development of the robust model for the flow of shale gas (Behar and Vandenbroucke in Org Geochem, 11:15–24, 1987). So the major driving force behind the working on this major project is the unavailability of desired models that could lead to enhanced production of these wells and that too efficiently. This model mainly includes the movement of shale gas from tight reservoir through the conductive fractures to wellbore and production model of the decline in pressure inside the reservoir with respect to time. This result has been further compared with the help of MATLAB so as to obtain a complete pressure-derived model. The result shows the applicability of this in the real-life projects where it is difficult to model the fractures and obtain the flow rate with them in fractures and how to set the production facilities becomes a question.
