Abstract

New type curves are presented for use in evaluating build-up and drawdown tests of double porosity-reservoirs. Because the curves enhance the small variations that occur in pressure response, they will provide a more accurate interpretation. In addition to discussing the curves' applications, the article includes an example well test analysis.
