Laplace-domain multiwell convolution for simulating pressure interference response of multiple fractured horizontal wells by use of modified Stehfest algorithm

The new approach combines the flexibility of presenting complex fracture-hit connection and the convenience of convolution of Laplace transformation. The corresponding inverse numerical algorithm has the ability of overcoming difficulties in handling sudden changes in flow rate in well-test-analysis applications. In summary, the study provides a well understanding and insight into the physics of interference mechanisms by using semi-analytical approach.
