Abstract
Background: The process of oil production from low-permeability reservoirs has some features and is associated with a number of problems. The main problem is the lack of involvement in the active development of oil reserves in low-permeability zones. Most design documents for the development of low-permeability carbonate reservoirs recommend conventional water injection, which leads to rapid water encroachment of production wells due to water breakthrough from the injection well to the production well through the high-permeability layers or fractures.
Aim: In the conditions of low-permeability reservoirs of carbonate deposits, there is a need to search for new technologies and development methods that will ensure the economic viability of field development at a late stage.
Materials and methods: One of the promising technologies that help reduce the level of water cut and involve in the development of an inactive matrix zone low-permeability fractured reservoirs are flow diverter technologies aimed at increasing the sweeping efficiency of productive formations by redistributing filtration flows, reducing or stabilizing water cut, reducing the volume of produced water, obtaining additional oil production.
Results: This article presents the results of laboratory studies on the selection of optimal flow diverter chemical compositions for the conditions of the Alibekmola oil field.
Conclusion: Conducted laboratory studies prove the applicability and effectiveness of flow diverter compositions for the conditions of carbonate fractured reservoirs.
