Permeability Estimation from Fracture Calibration Test Analysis in Shale and Tight Gas

Permeability estimation in tight and shale reservoirs is challenging because little or no flow will occur without hydraulic fracture stimulation. In the pressure falloff following a fracture calibration test (FCT), radial flow after the fracture closure can be used to estimate the reservoir permeabi...
