Abstract:

This article describes the development of a 3D hydrodynamic model of the developed reservoirs of the Jurassic sediments of a single oilfield production facility. The model meets the requirements of the “Provisional Rules for the Assessment of the Quality and Acceptance of 3D Digital Geological and Hydrodynamic Models Presented by Subsurface Users as part of Technical Projects for Developing Hydrocarbon Deposits for the consideration of the Rosnedra Central Subsoil Use Monitoring Center”. The authors analyze two variants of the development of a separate commercial section of the field, which is at the final stage of development.

The results show significant advantages of applying the method of drilling sidetracks with a horizontal termination in the zone of increased density of current mobile oil reserves together with physical and chemical treatment of terrigenous reservoirs. It increases a) the profitability of production wells in conditions of high water cut and generation of reservoirs in the drainage zone at the final stage of development, b) the cost-effective term of development, and c) the cost-effective development term to 52-54 years compared with the basic development period of 48-50 years.
