Abstract Fractured vuggy carbonate reservoirs are highly heterogeneous and non-continuous, and contains not only erosion pores and fractures but also the vugs. Unfortunately, the current well test model cannot be used to analyze fractured-vuggy carbonate reservoirs, due to the limitations of actual geological characteristics. To solve the above-mentioned problem, a pressure transient analysis model for fracture-cavity carbonate reservoir with radial composite reservoir that the series multi-sacle fractures and caves exist and dual-porosity medium (fracture and erosion pore) is established in this paper, which is suitable for fractured vuggy reservoirs. Laplace transformation is used to alter and solve the mathematical model. The main fractures' linear flow and the radial flow of caves drainage area are solved by coupling. The pressure-transient curves of the bottomhole have been obtained with the numerical inversion algorithms. The typical curves for well test model which has been established are drawn, and flow periods are analyzed. The sensitivity analysis for different parameters is analyzed. The variation characteristic of typical curves is by the theoretical analysis. With the increasing of fracture length, the time of linear flow is increased. While the cave radius is the bigger, the convex and concave of the curve is the larger. As a field example, actual test data is analyzed by the established model. An efficient well test analysis model is developed, and it can be used to interpret the actual pressure data for fracture-cavity carbonate reservoirs.

Flow behind the casing has normally been identified and quantified using production logging tools. Very few applications of pressure transient analysis, which is much cheaper, have been devoted to determining compromised cemented zones. In this work, a methodology for a well test interpretation for determining conductivity behind the casing is developed. It provided good results with synthetic examples.
