Abstract

The Kruk oil and gas field development is characterized by its geological structure and various technological indicators. A comprehensive evaluation of the field's properties has allowed for the determination of recoverable oil reserves using water-based oil displacement techniques. Two scenarios were considered for field development: one with an initial well mesh and another with a densified well grid. The results demonstrated the high efficiency of well grid densification during the later stages of field development. This optimization strategy led to a notable increase in the rate of oil withdrawal and enhanced the recovery of geological reserves. The densification of the well grid improved the overall efficiency of oil production and contributed to maximizing the extraction of available oil reserves. The findings highlight the importance of employing advanced technological strategies to enhance oil and gas field development. By carefully considering the geological structure and implementing well grid densification when appropriate, it is possible to optimize oil recovery, increase productivity, and effectively utilize the available geological reserves in the Kruk field

  22. 5 Conclusions
  23. As a result of analysis of the results of densification of the well grid at Kruk field, the following conclusions are
  24. formulated which have certain scientific and practical value for planning of measures on increase of development
  25. efficiency and increase of the oil recovery factor of the objects with similar geological structure:
  26. - The drilling of new wells in areas covered by the drainage of previously drilled wells leads to a decrease in the
  27. average specific recoverable oil reserves per well, in the considered case from 103.1 to 98.3 thousand tonnes.
  28. At the same time, the average specific recoverable oil reserves per one new well were 80.9 thousand tonnes;
  29. - In our example, 21.6% increase in well stock resulted in increase in ultimate TOC from 40.56% to 49.34%, i.e.
  30. 8.78%;
  31. - The effectiveness of drilling sealing wells depends to a large extent on reasonably identifying zones not
  32. involved in the process of drainage by the existing stock of wells.
