This invention discloses a method for calculating the
production rate of fractured wells in heterogeneous
tight oil reservoirs considering the
initiation pressure gradient. First, based on the closed boundary
point source function, a multi-scale seepage model of matrix seepage in heterogeneous
tight oil reservoirs is established using Green's formula and Newman integral. Then, according to the
skin principle, a negative
skin coefficient is introduced to describe the influence of the fracture network stimulation zone on seepage, resulting in a flow characterization model of the fracture network stimulation zone. Next, the main fracture flow equation is established, and the pressure drop equation of a single discrete fracture unit is described using
Darcy's law. The pressure drop characterization model from any discrete unit to the horizontal
wellbore is calculated using the pressure drop
superposition principle, resulting in the main fracture flow characterization model. Finally, a
production rate calculation model for fractured wells in heterogeneous
tight oil reservoirs is coupled and established. The steady-state production processes of fracture micro-segments within each small time interval are superimposed, and a heterogeneity coefficient is established based on the
skin principle, resulting in a
production rate calculation model for fractured wells in heterogeneous tight oil reservoirs under variable production conditions. This method enables rapid and effective, precise prediction of production rates.
