Abstract
The paper reviews the new data on the secondary zeolite mineralization characteristics for the Lower Cretaceous deposits of the West Siberian plate north. The authors suggest that the zone of distribution of altered rocks is much wider and in addition covers the area of Russkoye field. A new method of accounting of the volume of minerals of the zeolite group is proposed based on using the value of the volume fraction content of zeolites, which allows for a more qualitative approach to calculation of volumes of hydrocarbons in this type of reservoirs. It is shown that in major foreign deposits, complicated by the zeolitization processes, in order to improve the performance of the bottom-hole zone it is recommended to use a solution of hydrochloric acid.

Abstract
There are two methods under consideration of using neutron logging data for the construction of seismic and geological models of oil and gas facilities in Western Siberia. The first method - the reconstruction of the acoustic properties of the well according to the neutron log. The second method - the development of a well-known technique Gardner L. A. determining density properties according acoustic logging. To the point neutron logging data are used to account the lithology. Combining these methods can restore acoustic and density properties of the geological cross-section only by using neutron logging data.

DRILLING OF WELLS AND FIELDS DEVELOPMENT
40-44 353
Abstract
It is shown that the changed conditions of gas and gas-condensate fields operation entailed an increase in complexity of well repairs using coiltubing technologies. However, the methods developed for wells recovery in terms of emergency-refurbishment and water-influx restriction works are not provided for by the existing classification of complex well repairs which makes difficult to justify the length of repair works and, accordingly, their cost. The suggested amendments to the current structure of wells repair types promote further development of technologies of well workover in the conditions of oil and gas production decline .

Abstract
Based on the laboratory studies results the advantages and limitations of well killing fluids are discussed. The results showed that neither of the studied fluids is applicable for killing the oil wells with a high gas-oil ratio in the field Novoportovskoye. For this field a new well killing fluid composition has been developed that differs from currently used fluids (the new composition is prepared for a claim on invention). The components of the developed formulation are widely available and are of low cost.

Abstract
It is stated that the extension of the profitability period of production in the fields that are currently at final stages of development can be ensured thanks to using the mobile compressor units (MCU). The increase of gas production volumes is achieved through intensification of productive rates of the depleted wells as a result of connection of MCUs to the gas gathering network. This enables to increase the capacity of loops, to reduce wellhead pressure and, consequently, to increase the production rates of wells. This article shows the economic and energy efficiency of the hypothetical introduction of the domestic system MCU TAKAT 64.09 M4 UHL1 at the well cluster of the field Vyngapurovskoye.

Abstract
This work purpose was to develop a method for determination of the effective viscosity of the granulated gel PPG for blocking anthropogenic fractures (auto-FHF fractures) which is applied at later stages of oil fields development. Using the laboratory fracture model the values of constants (apparent constant consistency and the apparent index of pseudoplasticity) for the equation of viscoelastic liquid were obtained. The same constants were used to derive the equation for pressure gradient along the anthropogenic fracture. The gel viscosity is calculated by the equation of gel movement along the fracture. This equation enables to predict the gel viscosity for each size of granulated gel fractions depending on the fracture width and the gel injection velocity.

Abstract
The paper considers the cycling process as a method of gas condensate fields development by maintaining reservoir pressure through a reverse injection of gas into the productive horizon. The reservoir pressure maintenance impedes the liberation of high boiling hydrocarbons from the reservoir gas occurred due to retrograde condensation, which generate the gas condensate (which otherwise is practically lost). The experience of the cycling process realization proves its high technological and economic efficiency.

Abstract
The article considers the features of numerical construction of solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations full system describing a three-dimensional flow of compressible viscous heat-conducting gas under the action of gravity and Coriolis forces. It is shown that accounting of dissipative properties of viscosity and thermal conductivity of the moving continuum, even with constant coefficients of viscosity and thermal conductivity, as well as the use of explicit difference scheme calculation imposes significant restrictions on numerical experiments aimed at studying the arising complex flows of gas or liquid. First of all, it is associated with a signifi- cant complication of the system of equations, the restrictions on the value of the calculated steps in space and time, increasing the total computation time. One of the options is proposed of algorithm parallelization of numerical solution of the complete Navier - Stokes equations system in the vertical spatial coordinate. This parallelization option can significantly increase the computing performance and reduce the overall time of counting. A comparison of the results of calculation of one of options of gas flow in the upward swirling flow obtained by serial and parallel programs is presented.

Abstract
The article discusses a change of impact elasticity (a crack resistance or other value characterizing a resistance to rupture) depending on the cutting blade heating temperature. The test results showed that high temperature impact resistance strengthening of the hard alloy blade structure by treatment of its surface with wearresistant refractory titanium nitride coating proved its effectiveness at 500 0C and at 600 0C. At temperature of 900 0C a deterioration occurs resulted from generation of defects in the coating and in the hard alloy surface layer which become the sites of destructive impact crack initiation.
