Performance Evaluation of a Horizontal Well With Multiple Fractures by Use of a Slab-Source Function
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Summary A novel slab-source function was formulated and successfully applied to accurately evaluate performance of a horizontal well with multiple fractures in a tight formation. More specifically, such a slab-source function in the Laplace domain has assigned a geometrical dimension to the source, whereas pressure response of a rectangular reservoir with closed outer boundaries can be determined. A semianalytical method is then applied to solve the newly formulated mathematical model by discretizing the fracture into small segments, each of which is treated as a slab source, assuming that there exists unsteady flow between the adjacent segments. The newly developed function was validated with numerical solution obtained from a reservoir simulator and then its application was extended to a field case. The pressure response together with its corresponding derivative type curves was reproduced to examine effects of number of stages, fracture conductivity, and fracture dimension under various penetration conditions. The fracture conductivity is found to mainly influence early-stage bilinear-/linear-flow regime, whereas a smaller conductivity will force more fluid to enter the toe of the fracture than its heel. The penetrating ratio will impose a significant impact on the pressure response at the early stage, forcing the bilinear/linear flow to become radial flow.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
