Abstract

The problem of flow of slightly compressible fluids through a bounded confined “fracture-pore” medium is solved and studied thoroughly in this paper. Some essential natures of flow of elastic liquids through a medium with double porosity under the condition of neglecting the flow in matrix system were revealed and clarified further. The method of estimating all parameters commonly interested in a bounded confined “fracture-pore” medium reservoir through a series of flow tests in wells by use of the solution obtained is presented.
