Formula 4.34

Fracture coefficient of a hydraulically fractured reservoir

Input(s)

m: Slope of the Production Decline Curve $\left(\mathrm{ft}^{3} / \mathrm{min}\right)$

$A_{f}$: Fractured Surface Area $\left(\mathrm{ft}^{2}\right)$

Output(s)

$C_{f}$: Fracture Coefficient of a Hydraulically Fractured Well $(\mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{min})$

Formula(s)

$$ C_{f}=\frac{0.0164 \cdot m}{A_{f}} $$
