A three-dimensional, three-phase reservoir simulator was developed to study the behavior of fully or partially fractured reservoirs.It is also demonstrated, that when a fractured reservoir is subject to a relatively large rate of pressure drop and/or it composed of relatively large blocks, the pseudo steady-state pressure concept gives large errors as compared with transient fromulation. In addition, when gravity drainage and imbibitum processes, which is the most important mechanism in the Fractured reservoirs, are represented by a
