Abstract The production performances of a well with a shale gas reservoir displaying a complex fracture network are simulated. In particular, a micro-seismic cloud diagram is used to describe the fracture network, and accordingly, a production model is introduced based on a multi-scale flow mechanism. A finite volume method is then exploited for the integration of the model equations. The effects of apparent permeability, conductivity, Langmuir volume, and bottom hole pressure on gas well production are studied accordingly. The simulation results show that ignoring the micro-scale flow mechanism of the shale gas leads to underestimating the well gas production. It is… More >
