Fig. 1. PTA Diagnostic Plot for LSS pressure response for the 0.1 md reservoir in a close line source vicinity (0.1 m), which is about a typical wellbore size.

One can easily see that with wellbore effects neglected even for a very low permeability reservoir the IARF regime is getting formed very early at 0.01 hr (36 s).
