Fetkovich found the fit the field data better. Including definitions for
time and radius transforms the equation becomes

A similar equation for gas can be developed, using mscfpd units for the
flow rate and in terms of real gas pseudopressure which can be
generally used or in pressure squared for reservoirs under 3000 psi.

The type-curve stem selected form the match with the field data
defines re/rwa value. Rearrange the tDd equation to a form that can be
used to determine the apparent wellbore radius
