New approach to the diagnostics of current distribution of water flow injected to the Productive Series in the context of the data of “Neft Dashlary” oil field

Abstract

The paper presents the results of theoretic, laboratory-experimental and field studies associated with using express-method for the definition of the direction of water flow pumped into the injection wells. According to the results of carried out calculations, the current distribution of injected water in selected part of the series in “Neft Dashlary” (X horizon) field has been visualized. The accuracy of the calculations has been justified via comparison of obtained results to those of the tracer study conducted in field conditions at the same time. New tracer indicative material has been tested during the tracer studies. According to the laboratory- experimental research carried out, the optimum amount of indicative substance added to the injected water for the identification in well production has been specified. The saving by using the calculation method in selected area of “Neft Dashlary” field is equal to 62.9 thousands AZN.
