Abstract

The paper addresses to the topical scientific and practical issue of enhancing the efficiency of hydrocarbon recovery from reservoir rocks formed in thin-bedded Neogene deposits of the Bilche-Volytska zone in the Precarpathian Basin. The reservoirs in this region are characterized by complex lithological structure, significant layering, variability in granulometric composition, and generally low filtration and storage properties. An additional complicating factor is the high heterogeneity of the strata, which manifests itself in both horizontal and vertical directions, significantly affecting the efficiency of oil and gas extraction using traditional methods.

The paper provides a detailed analysis of the geological prerequisites for the formation of thin-bedded sandstone-siltstone complexes, including their petrophysical characteristics, such as porosity, permeability, cementation type, and fluid saturation degree. Considerable attention is paid to the study of the filtration properties of rocks in the context of the spatial variability of reservoir parameters that determine the productive potential of wells. The influence of structural and tectonic factors on the formation of traps and the distribution of reservoir zones is considered separately.

The main factors limiting well yields in such geological conditions are analyzed, and possible ways to optimize development are considered. Improving geological and geophysical models, applying modern intensification methods, in particular hydraulic fracturing and acid treatment, as well as introducing technologies for detailed zoning of productive intervals, are promising areas for improving production efficiency. The work emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive approach that combines geological analysis, laboratory research, and modelling of filtration processes to ensure the rational and efficient development of resources in this complex category of reservoirs.

Abstract

The purpose of the work is to assess the reliability of the results of geological and geophysical studies of complex-constructed Neogene deposits by electrical methods and to develop optimally reliable approaches to the selection of hydrocarbon-saturated rocks with an assessment of their reservoir parameters. In addition, to establish the factors that affect the ambiguity of geological and geophysical conclusions in the process of research of complex lithological and stratigraphic strata, which ultimately causes the omission of reservoir rocks saturated with hydrocarbons. The obtained experimental results of the research of the core material taken from the wells of the adjacent gas condensate fields made it possible to identify the main factors and parameters that determine the filtration-capacity parameters of Neogene deposits. Based on the above, there is a need to substantiate and develop methodological aspects of the use of electrical methods to determine the nature of reservoir rock saturation and to determine the dynamics of water-gas-condensate contacts. The subject of research is the electrical parameters of water- and gas-saturated reservoir rocks. In addition, the substantiation of the effect of pressure and temperature on the performance of electrical methods in the process of researching complex-constructed Neogene reservoir rocks and the peculiarities of the dynamics of changes in water-oil and gas-water contacts. The decrease in oil and gas production from complex geological sections is due to both economic and technological factors that arise in the process of researching the lithological and stratigraphic strata of the Bilche-Volytsa zone. The geological structure of the above-mentioned territories is extremely complex and represents, in particular in the Bilche-Volitsa zone, a classically expressed wing of the platform type, weakly dislocated by upper Miocene molasses.
