Improving the carbonate reservoirs development efficiency on the example of the Tournaisian stage deposits
The article deals with the issue of carbonate strata of complex geological structure development efficiency improving. Such facilities, as a rule, have deteriorated reservoir properties, parameter anisotropy and are complicated by secondary cavernosity. All of these factors affect the recovery efficiency and are often reflected in development indicators. On the example of Tournaisian stage deposits an example of a methodological approach to the development analysis which takes into consideration various geological factors is presented. As a result, various dependencies were obtained, which when taken into account determin the most promising areas in terms of development efficiency. The issues of the waterflooding system efficiency and the ways of its efficiency increasing are considered separately. Keywords: oil fields development; carbonate reservoirs; development efficiency; waterflooding system.
