To obtain sustainable economical oil production and recovery of investment, some oil fields adopted the strategy of multilayer commingling production at an early stage. This leads to interlayer interference and losing part of the recoverable reserves. In this paper, dynamic interference behaviors of arbitrary multilayer commingling production in heavy oil reservoirs are analyzed. Based on the non-Darcy flow equation, the Buckly-Leverett equation, and the material balance equation, a mathematical model of arbitrary multilayer commingling production is obtained. Oil and water relative permeability, saturation, and bottom hole flow pressure microelement and the iteration method are employed to solve the mathematical model in the time domain. The new model is verified by comparing the results from the typical black oil model using the Darcy law. The sensitivity analysis of critical parameters on interference behaviors, such as permeability, oil viscosity, effective drainage boundary, and voidage replacement ratio, is carried out. The model obtained in this paper can be used for oil and liquid productivity analysis during the overall process of commingling production and extended to be applied in numerical experiments with different combinations of typical parameters as well.
