Abstract

The work is devoted to the substantiation of new geophysical technology for mapping the Bazhenovskaya Formation based on an impulsive electromagnetic sounding from wells. Theoretically shown the possibility of its application to study the formation from highly inclined and subhorizontal wells drilled in the Upper and Middle Jurassic formations. Numerical modeling of the signals in realistic geoelectric models of the Bazhenov Formation with real well trajectories is carried out on the example of the East Surgut field. The calculations have established that the determination of spatial locations of the top and bottom of the beds is possible when using different-length sondes. Zones of high sensitivity of the full magnetic field matrix to the boundaries with a sufficient signal level at considerable distance, even with a small sonde length, are determined. It is theoretically established that pulsed sounding of the Bazhenov Formation from the Upper and Middle Jurassic reservoirs is feasible for both mapping the boundaries of the formation and tracing its lateral variability.
