Abstract

Extraction of hard-to-recover hydrocarbons is becoming an urgent task for the entire world oil community. The development of new technologies and methods, as well as the improvement of existing ones, have become the main issue in the extraction of hydrocarbons at existing fields. The aim of the work was to develop the technology of hydrodynamic impact on the hydrocarbon deposit. The process of oil reservoirs flooding is one of the most widespread and traditional in the application of extraction of hard–to-recover oil. The most effective in terms of impact is the cyclic regime of flooding of oil reservoirs – periodic changes in fluid flow rates at injection and production wells with a phase shift of oscillations for individual groups of wells. The use of cyclic flooding in combination with an increase in the average level of injection pressures can give a significant increase in the coefficient of reservoir coverage in power. The degree of hydrodynamic connectivity of the layers along the section has a significant impact on the effectiveness of cyclic flooding. The coefficient of lithological connectivity of formations is determined by the ratio of the area of the reservoir confluence to the total area of the deposit and can characterize the hydrodynamic connectivity of formations along the section. Using the example of the D3 of the Korotkoye field, an assessment of the start-up of the wells of the PPD system was done as well as the analysis of the nature of its influence on the volume and water content of the extracted products of the D3 formation of the Korotkoye field under various injection modes using cyclic flooding. It is determined that when both injection wells are stopped for a long period, the output of the produced products decreases to 25%. The analysis of the total oil flow rate showed that in the variants with well shutdowns there is a stronger decrease in oil flow rate than in the variants with cyclic injection, in the variants with cyclic operation of the PPD system the highest indicators of accumulated oil production are achieved for a certain period.
