Abstract

Parametric Approach to Geo-Ecological Studies of Hydrocarbon Development in the Offshore Area of the Caspian Sea

Highlights

The Caspian Sea is the largest land locked body of water on Earth, located in the inner region of Eurasia, which was isolated in the Middle Pliocene about 5-6 million years ago
A few days later the torch went out. Another example is the accident at the “Tengiz” field in Western Kazakhstan, which occurred on June 24, 1985
It is necessary to significantly expand the front of scientific research aimed at preventing explosions and fires from gushing fluids in the oil and gas fields, often leading to destruction of drilling rigs and stationary oil platforms on the coast and at sea, as well as to sinking of floating oil platforms in the deep zone of the Caspian shelf

Summary

Introduction

The Caspian Sea is the largest land locked body of water on Earth, located in the inner region of Eurasia, which was isolated in the Middle Pliocene about 5-6 million years ago. Another example is the accident at the “Tengiz” field in Western Kazakhstan (northeast coast of the Caspian Sea), which occurred on June 24, 1985 On this day, a powerful burning fountain of oil and natural gas saturated with hydrogen sulfide burst from a well of about 5 km from well No 37 under a pressure of almost a thousand atmospheres. Not so long ago a new similar accident occurred in March, 2019 at the well of the Kalamkas field, located in the Mangistau region of the Republic of Kazakhstan, four kilometers from the Caspian Sea. Around the drilling site, 13 griffins formed - sudden breakthroughs to the surface of fluids (most often gas), moving under great pressure through the annulus of the boreholes. Despite the fact that the gas pipeline was quickly blocked on both sides, the gas remaining in the pipe was burning out for many hours (Figure 10)
