  abstract = {{A} new analytical solution is developed for interference hydraulic pumping tests in fractal fractured porous media using the dual-porosity concept. {H}eterogeneous fractured reservoirs are considered with hydrodynamic parameters assumed to follow power-law functions in radial distance. {T}he developed analytical solution is verified by comparison against a finite volume numerical solution. {T}he comparison shows that the numerical solution converges toward the analytical one when the size of the time step decreases. {T}he applicability of the fractal dual-porosity model is then assessed by investigating the identifiability of the parameters from a synthetic interference pumping test with a set of noisy data using {B}ayesian parameter inference. {T}he results show that if the storage coefficient in the matrix is fixed, the rest of the parameters can be appropriately inferred; otherwise, the identification of the parameters is faced with convergence problems because of equifinality issues.},
