The use of indicator methods in oil and gas field geology allows us to obtain representative quantitative information about the direction and velocity of fluid movement in the studied formations, to assess the main filtration parameters and the presence of inter-reservoir flows, as well as reliable information about the technical condition of wells. The use of indicators (tracers) is based on the injection of water (or an aqueous solution of the reagent) labeled with a stable or radioactive indicator and subsequen...

This research describes such a problem as increasing the productivity of wells and the oil recovery coefficient by conducting various geological and technical measures, which based on correlation, regression, and statistical analyzes. These methods allow to analyse a possible interconnection of two or more numbers of indicators, also identifying the problematic well stock, and selecting a set of measures aimed at improving the efficiency of field development, including various geological and technical measures. Ex...

When developing oil fields, water flooding is often used to displace oil. In this case, effective oil production is possible with a detailed study of hydrodynamics in the reservoir. Recently, organic phosphors have been used for these purposes, which are pumped into the formation through injection wells. The spectral characteristics of the excitation (absorption) and luminescence of produced water with phosphors can provide information on the hydrodynamic relationship between injection and producing wells and the ...

One of the complicating factors in oil production is the deposition paraffin, as a result of which the production well rate is decreasing and the Electric submersible pump failure occurs. The main factors influencing the intensity of paraffin formation are: downhole temperature, gas evolution, hydrocarbon composition in each phase of the mixture, high viscosity of oil, change in the velocity of the gas-liquid mixture. To solve problems, the thermal method is used, which consists in artificial increase of the well ...
