The reservoir properties and production performance of this reservoir show a unique behavior, which are different from the homogeneous reservoir. Hence, evaluation and forecasting production of these reservoirs require special models and approaches. This paper attempts to utilize production data inversion method to obtain parameters such as permeability, skin factor, initial fluid-in-place and production potential in a naturally fractured reservoir. The model can then be used to forecast production from this type of reservoir. The method uses type curve approach that incorporate concepts of both transient and boundary dominated flow models. Application of this method to oil field data is presented as well as comparison with results obtained from other methods (such as well test analysis and volumetric calculation). The results of this research provide engineers a tool to evaluate and monitor production/reservoir performance of naturally fractured reservoirs regularly by analyzing production data (which are always recorded) without additional testing.
