@@@@Highlights •Conduct a systematic study to investigate the natural gas flow in fractured carbonate reservoir of GST-MX Block (China).•Vugs distribute in a stratified manner with characteristic length ranging from 0.2 to 4 cm.•Stokes-Brinkman equation provides a reliable prediction of gas flow behavior in the fracture-vug carbonate reservoir.
