The article presents the results of a scientific study that investigates the methodological approach to assessing the efficiency of geological exploration for hard-to-recover (HTR) hydrocarbon reserves. The traditional system of indicators for evaluating the geological and economic efficiency of exploration does not fully utilize the geological and geophysical data accumulated and processed as a result of studying HTR reserves. Consequently, the costs incurred by the operator rarely bring the expected positive effect. Using a system of additional indicators for evaluating exploration efficiency will increase the value of geological data, which in turn will positively impact the efficiency of the development and exploitation of HTR reserves. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the proposed system of additional indicators for evaluating the geological and economic efficiency of exploration. This system factors in the specific features of HTR reserves located within the northern territories of Russia. It is recommended for use when assessing the geological and economic efficiency of greenfield exploration projects, as it will allow for the adjustment of the estimated reserve volumes at various project stages. Since the proportion of proven oil reserves belonging to the HTR category is high (about 65 %), exploration activities aimed at reserves maturation in the short- and medium-term will play an important role in the country’s oil industry. The reduction in state funding for exploration is another factor that contributes to the search for new organizational forms and methods of exploration, especially at sites requiring more profound and detailed geological surveys, such as proven and forecast HTR reserves.
РЕЗЮМЕ Цель исследования. Провести сравнительный анализ эффективности малоинвазивных вмешательств при облитерации устья слезных канальцев у пациентов после дакриоцисториностомии. Материал и методы. В исследование включен 121 пациент (127 случаев), из которых 61 человек (64 случая) был со стенозом устья слезных канальцев, 60 (63 случая)-с облитерац ией устья слезных канальцев. Стеноз и облитерация устья слезных канальцев явились следствием рецидива проведенной ранее (от 6 мес до 5 лет) эндоназальной эндоскопической дакриоцис ториностомии по поводу облитерации шейки слезного мешка. Пациенты были разделены на 3 группы. В 1-й группе 20 пациентам (20 случаев) со стенозом и 21 пациенту (22 случая) с облитерацией устья слезных канальцев была проведена трансканаликулярная баллонная дакриопластика (ТБДП), во 2-й группе 20 пациентам (21 случай) со стенозом и 20 пациентам (21 случай) с облитерацией устья слезных канальцев выполнена ТБДП и биканаликулярная интубация устья слезных канальцев лакримальным имплантатом (ЛИ), в 3-й-21 пациенту (23 случая) со стенозом устья слезных канальцев и 19 пациентам (20 случаев) с облитерацией устья слезных канальцев осуществлена биканаликулярная интубация устья слезных канальцев ЛИ. Результаты оценивали через 12 мес после вмешательства. Результаты. Положительный результат лечения стеноза и облитерации устья слезных канальцев был следующим: в 1-й группе 80 и 68,2% соответственно, во 2-й-76,2 и 66,7% соответственно, в 3-й-56,5 и 50% соответственно. Заключение. Проведенное исследование аргументирует целесообразность применения ТБДП как самостоятельного вмешательства без интубации слезоотводящих путей, при котором не наблюдают осложнений, связанных с присутствием ЛИ.
The aim of this work is to study the etiological factors of failures after endonasal endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (EEDCR). We retrospectively studied the case reports of 485 patients (521 cases) with a relapse after EEDCR performed for primary dacryocystitis. The obtained data allowed us to reveal that the largest number of cases of relapse after EEDCR was a consequence of partial or complete obliteration of dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) ostium (278 cases), which amounted to 53.3% of all analyzed cases. In 127 cases, the reason of recurrence after EEDCR was stenosis or obliteration of the common canaliculus ostium (24.4%). In 116 cases (22.3%), relapse after EEDCR was caused by a combination of several etiological factors. Of these, in 86 cases, synechiae and granulation in the area of dacryostomy were revealed. The retrospective analysis carried out within the framework of this work, based on the study of the results of the applied diagnostic methods, including multislice computed tomography with contrast enhancement of lacrimal drainage system, made it possible to determine and systematize the etiological factors of the development of repeated obstruction of the lacrimal drainage system after EEDCR. Key words: relapse, dacryocystitis, DCR, common canaliculus ostium, DCR ostium, synechiae.
