Inflow to horizontal wells can exceed vertical well inflow by utilizing optimal wellbore positioning, and reservoir characteristics impact production rates.
Production rates may decrease by up to 21.6% due to rock deformability, emphasizing the need for careful design parameters in field development.
Numerical and analytical methods assessed reservoir thickness and hydrodynamic interactions, informing the placement of horizontal wells for maximum efficiency.
The findings provide crucial insights for planning field development both offshore and onshore under complex geomechanical conditions.
