The Mature Formation Production Features

Article Preview

Abstract:

The mature stage of field production is reported to observe a significant decline in oil production rates; watercut either grows slowly or (with the regulation of the production processes) somewhat stabilizes. In some periods, it even somewhat decreases, usually due to the cut-off of the highly watered well stock. During the multi-foundation field production, joint exploitation of the productive foundation is often applied; these foundations are often allocated to different sites. The research objective is to justify the directions for further production of the geological and commercial site, which is at the mature production stage; choose the most technologically "productive" and economically feasible interventions in order to increase oil recovery. Applying the classical methods of geological-field analysis and calculation of displacement characteristics, the main trends in the field production have been revealed; using the data of field and geophysical research, the reasons for obtaining unsatisfactory results in joint foundation operation have been revealed.
