Oil and Gas Reservoir Characterisation of Altyguyi Deposit, Turkmenistan Based on Property Aspects and Production Results

Abstract

This study investigated the geological structure and hydrocarbon potential of the Altyguyi field, Turkmenistan using advanced analytical techniques to optimise future extraction strategies. An in-depth analysis was performed on the geological structure and hydrocarbon production potential of the oil and gas reservoirs. An integrated approach combined geochemical, geophysical and drilling data analyses. Petroleum component analysis identified diverse compounds such as asphaltenes, resins, paraffins and sulphur, indicating the field developmental potential. Geochemical analysis delineated gas and oil component concentrations across various geological formations. Hydrochemical studies of reservoir water established its nature and origin, crucial for assessing production capabilities and environmental impacts. A methodological approach was developed to utilise isotherm creation and estimate condensate content in gas reservoirs, proving valuable for forecasting and optimising production processes. The study confirmed significant hydrocarbon deposits in the Altyguyi field, highlighting its high production potential and promising development outlook. These insights are essential for devising optimal production strategies and managing oil, gas and condensate extraction effectively.
