Abstract Field development practices in many shale gas regions (e.g., the Changning region) have revealed a persistent issue of suboptimal reserve utilization, particularly in areas where the effective drainage width of production wells is less than half the inter-well spacing (typically 400–500 m). To address this, infill drilling has become a widely adopted and effective strategy for enhancing reservoir contact and mobilizing previously untapped reserves. However, this approach has introduced significant inter-well interference, complicating production dynamics and performance evaluation. The two primary challenges hindering efficient deployment of infill wells are: (1) the quantitative assessment of hydraulic… More >
