Consider a system of net hydrocarbon pay and aquifer as  a radial composite reservoir with inner composite area being a Net Pay Area and outer composite area an Aquifer.

The transient pressure diffusion flow in this system is going to honour the following equationTransient flow in Radial Composite Reservoir:
