Using relative permeability curves to evaluate phase trapping damage caused by water-based and oil-based drilling fluids in tight gas reservoirs

Low matrix permeability and significant damage mechanisms are the main signatures of tight-gas reservoirs. During the drilling and fracturing of tight formations, the wellbore liquid invades the tight formation, increases liquid saturation around the wellbore, and eventually reduces permeability at...
