In analyzing the complex interaction between the wellbore and the reservoir formation,the hydromechanical properties of the region proximal to the wellbore,referred to as the"wellbore skin zone",play a pivotal role in determining flow dynamics and the resulting formation deformation.Existing models of the wellbore skin zone generally assume a constant permeability throughout,resulting in a sharp permeability discontinuity at the skin-reservoir interface.This paper introduces a model for a wellbore with a continuously graded skin zone of finite thickness within a poroelastic medium.Analytical solutions are derived using the Laplace transform method,addressing both positive and negative skin zones.Numerical results are presented to illustrate the effects of graded permeability/skin zone thickness on pore pressures and stresses around a wellbore.The results highlight a distinct divergence in stress and pore pressure fields when comparing wellbores with negative skin zones to those with positive skin zones or no skin at all.
