Popis: The gas-condensate reservoirs are typical organic fossil reservoirs of hydrogen compounds energy. With the development of gas-condensate reservoirs, a part of condensate liquid of hydrogen compounds will appear under the influence of retrograde condensation mechanism. However, the effects of retrograde condensation on the production performance of organic hydrogen compound energy with different well types are still not clear. In this study, a series of numerical simulation models were established to investigate the law of retrograde condensation with different well types and reservoir permeabilities. Furthermore, the effects of retrograde condensation on gas well productivity were analyzed by the comparison between the compositional modeling and black oil modeling results. Results show that the condensate oil for the fractured wells is mainly distributed around the fracture tips instead of the perforation intervals for the unfractured wells. The maximum oil saturation and condensate area of two fractures at ends are much larger than those of middle fractures. The retrograde condensation exhibits a negligible impact on the production of multiple fractured horizontal wells with a cumulative gas production reduction 0.87%–1.57%. Hydraulic fracturing, multiple fractures and high reservoir permeability are conducive to lower the impact of retrograde condensation on the production of organic hydrogen compounds energy.
