Abstract

The method of performing exploration works allowing to obtain an environmental effect in the Caspian Sea fields is described in the article. The research area includes the Rakushechno-Latitudinal and Khvalynsko-Sarmatian zones. Deposits of these zones differ in a complex geological structure. When creating a model of deposits a set of data is used: high-precision 3D seismic surveys on the study area and the results of drilling wells. Such detail of seismic exploration works allows to obtain high-quality results that are due to the high density of reflection points over the area and to the maximum use of various dynamic parameters of reflected waves. The results of such surveys are used in the calculation of reserves, justification of work on additional exploration and subsequent operation. Based on the results of seismic surveys a quantitative forecast of reservoir properties was carried out due to the inversion. For implementation seismic data was processed while preserving the true amplitudes of the seismic signal. Drilling wells were also the main source of information when performing work on calculating reserves. The complex structure and heterogeneity conditions of reservoir properties in area and section, the presence of discontinuous violations led to the use of the described technology, which involves the assessment of reserves and their transfer to the industrial category without testing in the column and causing inflow to the surface. This is done by means of a comprehensive accelerated diagnostics of productive formations for the assessment of reserves of the industrial category. Such a diagnosis provides for the study of productive formations based on the analysis and generalization of accumulated material on core, GIS, GDIS, GDK-OPK and PVT studies, without conducting tests in wells. With the help of these studies the filtration-capacitance properties of rocks, the nature of fluid saturation, contact positions, static levels, reservoir and bottom-hole pressures and reservoir temperatures, as well as deep sampling are determined. The use of modern instruments such as MDT (reservoir Tester) makes it possible to obtain reliable deep samples of the reservoir fluid. The results of data interpretation are successfully approved when making reports on UVS reserves calculation.
