Abstract

A method may include determining, during a first time step within an iterative simulation process, various pseudo-pressure values based on model data. The method may include determining, during the first time step, a first set of skin factor values for the wellbore radial grid portions using the pseudo-pressure values. The method may include simulating, during the first time step, a first well production rate for a well within a reservoir region of interest using the first set of skin factor values and a first pressure distribution for the reservoir region of interest. The method may include simulating, during a second time step within the iterative simulation process, a second well production rate for the well using a second set of skin factor values and a second pressure distribution for the reservoir region of interest.
