An analysis was made of the development of sections of the D3ps formation of the Devonian terrigenous sequence of the Shkapovsky field, with a share of contact zones of more than 78%, which showed that the exploitation of deposits by vertical and deviated wells is unprofitable. Studies show that the development of reserves at the facility occurs along highly permeable interlayers located in the plantar. The construction of sectoral geological and hydrodynamic models showed a detailed distribution of residual oil reserves by area and section in areas with low production values. When analyzing the parameters of the operation of wells with horizontal completion, it was found that the selection of mobile oil reserves localized in a volume limited by the plane of the initial oil-water contact and the surface formed by the rise of the oil-water contact when pulling the water cone to the wells with horizontal completion is comparable with the period of reaching a water cut of 95%. The volumetric method was used to calculate the moving oil reserves in the area of ​​water cone formation. It is recommended to drill wells with horizontal completion as an effective method of additional production of residual oil reserves in fields with similar geological and physical conditions.

The paper considers the issue of increasing the hydraulic fracturing efficiency in a multilayer facility at the final stage of development with an uneven degree of reserves development along the section. Based on the results of the analysis, it was found that the upper layers, which have the worst filtration-reservoir properties, are less developed in comparison with the highly productive lower ones. When hydraulic fracturing was carried out in the upper formations, some of the operations had low success due to the breakthrough of hydraulic fractures into the lower depleted formations. On the basis of the revealed dependencies, the work determined the optimal specific loading of proppant per meter of effective power, depending on the geological conditions, and maps of the prospects for hydraulic fracturing are built. Keywords: oil fields development; hydraulic fracturing; hydraulic fracturing optimization; multilayer facilities.

The article discusses the issue of resource base management in a complex structure of residual reserves. To increase the efficiency of the reserves development, constant monitoring of their distribution is necessary - how much they are involved, is there any potential for additional involvement, how efficient are the areas already involved in development. The paper proposes a methodological approach to the residual reserves control process organization, which allows planning and adjusting the program of reserves development. This is of particular relevance for companies that develop assets in the late stages of development, which do not have the ability to indiscriminate drilling. On the example of one of the enterprises developing assets in the Volga-Ural oil and gas province, the structuring of residual reserves was carried out, on the basis of which a strategy for increasing the reserves involvement in development was formed. To analyze the efficiency of reserves recovery in the involved areas, a reserve utilization factor based on the displacement forecast is proposed. Its implementation made it possible to identify problem areas, on the example of one of which a highly effective program for drilling horizontal wells was subsequently implemented. Keywords: oil fields development; oil reserves; resource management; reserves development; horizontal wells.

Based on the analysis of the efficiency of CVI.1 and CVI.2 oil reservoirs development, which partially coincide in structural terms, and the terrigenous strata of the Lower Carboniferous of one of Volga-Ural oil and gas province oil fields, an algorithm for assessing the efficiency of waterflooding was proposed, which takes into account the geological structure of the facility, the results of core and geophysical well surveys, as well as the historical performance of wells. The presented algorithm makes it possible to identify ineffective injection directions for making decisions on waterflooding system optimizing. The effect is the identified potential to cut costs by reducing inefficient injection, as well as identifying areas for the introduction of enhanced oil recovery techniques. Keywords: field development; reservoir pressure maintenance system; waterflooding efficiency; cost reduction.

The purpose of the paper is the substantiation of the application of the oil coning technology in the process of the hydrodynamic simulation of the successive method, which includes the perforation of the casing below the level of oil-water contact; the drawing of water from the lower water-saturated part of the reservoir; the isolation of this perforation interval; the drilling-in of the near-caprock oil-saturated part of the reservoir and the production of near-caprock oil. The leading approach to the research of this problem is the method of filtration modeling of the oil and water coning processes in the reservoir. As a result of the study, a hydrodynamic model of a well has been created, which corresponds to the requirements of the visualization of the process, the authenticity and the possibility to control the necessary parameters of the model and to estimate the effectiveness of the technology.
