Pressure Performance Analysis of Inclined Well under Multiple-Well Interference in Offshore Heavy Oil Reservoir by Kuiqian Ma, Gongchang Wang, Yue Gao, Meinan Wang, Jianguo Liu

“…The analytical solution in Laplace space is obtained by using Green function and superposition principle. The results show that the typical pressure dynamic curve can be divided into 12 flow regions, and the pressure derivative curve of the central inclined well is upturned and forms multiple “platforms” under the interference of adjacent wells; the adjacent well interference will aggravate the upward of pressure derivative curve; a critical well inclination angle of the inclined well is 40°. …”
