Abstract

The paper describes the Neocomian section stratification into seismofacial complexes including reservoirs in the coastal zone, into the relatively deep water isochronous clinoformic formations of the Achimov series. Based on the seismogeological correlation from the reference section to the north along the line of regional seismic profiles there were mapped the boundaries of the areal spread of the seven seismofacial complexes within the Gydan oil-and-gas bearing area.

Abstract

The article considers the hydrogeological stratification of the West Siberia megabasin based on the data of deep and ultra-deep wells drilling. The Triassic hydrogeological complex is recognized as a separate taxon in the Mesozoic basin section of the underground waters. The Triassic complex has a complex lithofacies structure. The porosity of the sedimentary volcanogenic reservoirs is comparable with the Jurassic deposits (up 20%). The inversion of mineralization and ion-salt composition of water is traced, what is a criterion of oil and gas presence.

Abstract

The article presents a description of laboratory studies of the material composition and particle-size distribution as well as porosity and permeability properties of Kharosoim suite and related clinoform complex. By now, in the deposits of the Kharosoim basin no hydrocarbon pools have been found, however, non-commercial gas influxes and gas presence indications have been revealed that permits to consider this basin as potentially perspective.

Abstract

On the example of several fields in the north of West Siberia the features of spatial distribution of zeolites in the Neocomian reservoirs productive deposits were described. For the beds BU13-15 a regional nature of zeolitization process confined to the areas of regional faults was determined. The most probable mechanism of zeolites formation associated with a maximum metosomatic influence on host rocks was demonstrated.

In this paper a new method of identification of the inflow profile (injectivity) in the horizontal hole based on the interpretation of pressure drawdown curves is presented. It is shown how the variation in the length of the zone of the influx to the horizontal hole after the acid treatment influences on the fluid flows in the formation and the pressure drawdown curves registered in the well.

Abstract

This paper describes the studies of prospecting appraisal boreholes in the process of their drilling as well as the method of liquidation of open gas blowout occurred at emergency, The basic reasons of well killing failures in the abnormally low reservoir pressure conditions at heavy killing fluids loss are outlined. The technology of well killing by injecting the saline solution of appropriate density into the annulus through the tubing is considered as most common. It is shown, that in the conditions of complicated geological structure of the East Siberia fields representing in its spatial totality deep faults and magmatic columns there formed the zones of increased permeability in which regular traditional killing liquids do not work. It is underlined that there is a need in new compositions one of which may be viscoelastic composition based on Teksotril, the polymer of BT-X type, and sodium hydroxide of commercial grade. However, this composition along with its positive properties possesses a number of disadvantages that require improvement.

Development of gas-condensate fields require introducing new technologies of inflow stimulation. One of the most effective stimulation methods is formation hydraulic fracturing. In this paper the technology of formation hydraulic fracturing realization is described. It is demonstrated that the results of operations performed prove a necessity of a thorough selection of wells for applying FHF.

Abstract

The problem of inflow to the horizontal perforated hole of the oil well in the stationary mode is considered. This problem is solved using the point flow function. A system of equations describing the process of oil inflow in the stratified bed to the horizontal well and the oil movement in the horizontal perforated hole was received. A combined solution of the obtained equations system enables to calculate the profile of inflow to the horizontal hole, the pressure drop in the hole and the increase of velocity of the developing stream through the hole depending on geological and physical parameters of each interlayer, the well path, the arrangement of perforation intervals and other parameters. An example is shown of calculation of horizontal oil well with three perforation intervals located in differently permeable interlayers. The inflow profile change at increasing the density of perforations placement in different perforation intervals is shown.

Abstract

The specific boundary conditions are proposed under which the upward gas flow is simulated by blowing through a square hole in the upper plane of the computational domain. The results of calculations of velocity parameters of the arising upward swirling flow are presented. The instant streamlines of this complex flow of gas were constructed. It is demonstrated that the three components of gas velocity undergo noticeable changes at the initial stage. It is also proved that at increasing the calculation time the velocity characteristics and the entire current in general stabilize gradually reaching a steady-state mode.

Abstract

The analytical solution was obtained reflecting the dependence of gas turbine engines effective power on their design and thermodynamic features as well as on parameters characterizing the engines operation conditions. This solution enables to determine the power developed by the engines based on the minimum information about their operation conditions. It is shown that for this it is enough just to get readings of regular meters. Using the received equation a procedure was developed for estimation of the engines technical state which enables to make such estimation on the probability basis and also in the extended option because it permits to get the engines power characteristic in expanded form.
