A brief description is given of flow models currently used for transient pressure analysis in fractured wells. Four such models are considered: (1) infinite conductivity vertical fracture; (2) uniform flux vertical fracture; (3) uniform plan horizontal fracture; and (4) finite conductivity vertical fracture. Modified versions of these models are presented for the cases of damaged fractures and heterogeneous fractures. Methods of interpretation for pressure transient data are discussed considering different types of graphs. Type curve analysis is shown to be an excellent diagnostic tool for pressure data relating to fractured wells. 45 refs.
