Abstract

On the example of the group of fields in the West Siberia North the basic types of secondary changes in reservoir rocks are reviewed. Some of the most common types of such changes in the West Siberian plate territory include the processes of zeolitization, carbonation and leaching. These processes have, as a rule, a regional character of distribution and are confined to the tectonically active zones of the earth's crust. Due to formation of different mineral paragenesises the secondary processes differently affect the reservoir rocks porosity and permeability: thus, zeolitization and carbonization promote to reducing the porosity and permeability and leaching improvement. All this, ultimately leads to a change of the oil recovery factor and hydrocarbons production levels. Study and taking into account of the reservoir rocks secondary change processes can considerably influence on placement of operating well stock and on planning of geological and technological actions.
