Abstract: Closure or openness of fractures in reservoirs depends on the stresses on and the roughness of fractures. Fractured reservoirs are middle-week sensitive to pore pressure. Rapid decline of production from fractured reservoirs is not due to the closure of fractures resulted by stress sensitivity, but the natural performance of periodical production behaviors of fractured reservoirs.

Key words: reservoir, fracture, stress sensitivity, reservoir pressure
