Summary A new well-test analysis technique that can be used in locating the flood-front position during secondary and/or tertiary recovery processes with the data taken on vertically fractured injection wells is described. In the development, an infinite-conductivity vertical fracture was assumed, together with the assumption of a stationary position for the flood front during the testing period.
