In view of the existing shortcomings of the analysis methods for the production system of conventional condensate gas well, the new method that adopts the non-steady gas reservoir seepage and the wellbore coupling has been proposed in this paper, in other words, the gas nozzle control, the wellbore flow and the reservoir seepage have been considered as the coupling entirety; the traditional nodal analysis has been combined with the well test analysis of non-steady seepage; the new production system analysis methods have been employed to discuss the characteristics of gas reservoir seepage, wellbore flow and gas reservoir boundary; at the same time, the changing trends of indicators in the development process have been also analyzed. Afterwards, the coordination state and the changes of parameters of the production system can be predicted in different production methods and different times. And the better results can be obtained through the application evaluation of YK1.

This paper presents a study of characteristic value method of well test analysis for horizontal gas well. Owing to the complicated seepage flow mechanism in horizontal gas well and the difficulty in the analysis of transient pressure test data, this paper establishes the mathematical models of well test analysis for horizontal gas well with different inner and outer boundary conditions. On the basis of obtaining the solutions of the mathematical models, several type curves are plotted with Stehfest inversion algorithm. For gas reservoir with closed outer boundary in vertical direction and infinite outer boundary in horizontal direction, while considering the effect of wellbore storage and skin effect, the pseudopressure behavior of the horizontal gas well can manifest four characteristic periods: pure wellbore storage period, early vertical radial flow period, early linear flow period, and late horizontal pseudoradial flow period. For gas reservoir with closed outer boundary both in vertical and horizontal directions, the pseudopressure behavior of the horizontal gas well adds the pseudosteady state flow period which appears after the boundary response. For gas reservoir with closed outer boundary in vertical direction and constant pressure outer boundary in horizontal direction, the pseudopressure behavior of the horizontal gas well adds the steady state flow period which appears after the boundary response. According to the characteristic lines which are manifested by pseudopressure derivative curve of each flow period, formulas are developed to obtain horizontal permeability, vertical permeability, skin factor, reservoir pressure, and pore volume of the gas reservoir, and thus the characteristic value method of well test analysis for horizontal gas well is established. Finally, the example study verifies that the new method is reliable. Characteristic value method of well test analysis for horizontal gas well makes the well test analysis process more simple and the results more accurate.
