Conceptual Approach, Peculiarity and Complexity of the Oil Rim Development Under Condition of Abnormal Low Reservoir Pressure and Temperature: The Case of Chayandinskoye Oilfield, Eastern Siberia

Abstract

The oil rim reserves development suggests complexity in maintaining the balance of gas and oil withdrawals from the reservoir, choosing the optimal well design and geosteering, justifying well operation conditions, etc. In addition, gas and oil reservoir can be complicated by diagenetic alterations of deposits, blocked structure, abnormal thermobaric conditions. The paper presents the results of conceptual approach to the Botuobinskiy horizon’s oil rim development design at the Chayandinskoye oil and gas condensate field with the presence of the above complications. This experience can be applied to assess the majority of fields in Eastern Siberia.
