This paper presents the formulation of a generalized dual-porosity compositional reservoir model. The model uses the implicit-pressure, explicit-saturation (IMPES) method, with semi-implicit treatment of wells, and the Newton-Raphson iteration method to solve the dual-porosity flow equations. The model was used to study the depletion performance of dual-porosity volatile-oil and gas-condensate reservoirs.
