This study investigates the dimensionless pressure and pressure derivative responses of a horizontal well within a reservoir characterized by inclined impermeable boundaries. Horizontal wells have gained prominence in recent years due to their potential to enhance hydrocarbon recovery from unconventional reservoirs. However, their behavior in reservoirs with nonconventional boundaries remains less understood. In this research, we employ analytical and numerical techniques to model the pressure and pressure derivative responses of a horizontal well situated in such a reservoir. By utilizing dimensionless
analysis, we aim to generalize the findings across various reservoir conditions and well geometries. The influence of inclined impermeable boundaries on well performance is examined, considering
factors such as boundary angle, reservoir anisotropy, and wellbore inclination. Through comprehensive simulations and sensitivity analyses, key insights into the behavior of horizontal wells in reservoirs with inclined impermeable boundaries are elucidated. The derived
dimensionless pressure and pressure derivative solutions provide valuable tools for reservoir
engineers to optimize well design and production strategies in such challenging environments. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the complex interactions between wellbore
geometry, reservoir boundaries, and fluid flow dynamics, paving the way for more efficient exploitation of hydrocarbon resources in unconventional reservoirs.

Horizontal well completions have become increasingly popular in the oil and gas industry due to their ability to access larger reservoir areas and enhance hydrocarbon recovery. However, the behavior of such wells within inclined sealing boundaries presents unique challenges and opportunities. Understanding the dimensionless pressure and derivative responses of horizontal wells in this context is crucial for optimizing reservoir management strategies.
