A method to determine the permeability-thickness product for a naturally fractured reservoir is presented. The method involves a graph of log (p-p/sub ws/) vs. t. The permeability-thickness product may be calculated from the slope. The mathematical theory is based on the extended Muskat analysis for a homogeneous reservoir and the Warren and Root for a naturally fractured reservoir. A comparison is made with the the Polland method, which involves a similar graph. It was found that both methods are mathematically related. The method presented is new and should have wide application to fractured reservoirs. 16 refs.
