Abstract

A geological well testing model containing fractures and matrix was built to match an observed complex well test response in a reservoir that was known to be fractured. The resulting match of a well intersecting minor fractures near a major fracture was considered a good match in consideration of alternative geological scenarios. This match leads to a better understanding of the key reservoir features to reliably support development decisions
