Methods for analysis of pressure transient performance in homogeneous reservoirs with spherical flow have been presented by others in the past. This work extends the art to the case of naturally fractured reservoirs with uniform fracture distribution. A reservoir model similar to the double-porosity system described by Warren and Root is employed. The fundamental differential equation and the solution of the equation by the application of the Laplace Transformation serves as the theoretical foundation. A method is then presented for estimation of an average spherical permeability and static reservoir pressure. Also the procedure for estimation of total fluid capacitance (phi/sub 2/C/sub 2/ + phi/sub 1/C/sub 1/) and the fraction of which being contributed by the fracture network (..omega..) is discussed.
