Prats effective well radius equation
It appears that the behavior of vertically fractured reservoirs can be interpreted in terms of simple radial-flow reservoirs of large wellbore.— Prats, 1961
Skin equation
Nomenclature
= wellbore radius, length
= effective well radius, length
= skin factor, dimensionless
= fracture half length, length
