Abstract

This paper explains the implementation of an advanced model based on a fractal interpretation of the fractured medium. Using the fractal concept, type curves for analyzing pressure transient test data have been developed and several type curves have been generated for analyzing interference test data in a naturally fracture reservoir.

The objective of this study is to implement the new type curve for analyzing interference test data in the Darajat Field, operated by Amoseas Indonesia, Inc., in order to obtain several reservoir characteristics such as permeability, transmissibility, storativity and fractal dimension.

The results of interference test match perfectly on the type curve generated using the fractal model and the proposed type curves perform better than the conventional one, especially in evaluation of the early time data of the interference test, and the dimension of fractal medium.
