Abstract: Based on the percolation theory of gas reservoirs after fracturing, considering the meaning and its infuence factor of cofficient“a”, this paper suggests that taking ceofficient“a” as a conslant for gas well in some area with conventional radial flowing is reasonable.It mostly depends on the average terrestrial stress and permeability. However, for gas well after fracturing. the meaning of coeficient “x”is quite different for its tight relations to dimensionless conductivity of hydraulic fractures. W ithout considering this factor's influence, greater errors will occur. Taking Changqing gas field as an example, the corelation of value of“a” with the dimensionless conductivity is simulated. This method presents a new way for calculation of absolute open flow in gas wells after fracturing.
