Prediction of production well flow rates using survey data

Abstract

Abstract The influence of geological and physical properties of the layers determined during geophysical studies on the maximum optimal flow rate of wells was studied for two groups of objects in terrigenous reservoirs of the Cretaceous age of Western Siberia. Multidimensional models were constructed. They allow for prediction of potential flow rates using indirect information when developing deposits in natural modes and using artificial waterflooding. An algorithm for substantiating selective and focal waterflooding, transfer of wells from other horizons and transfer of idle wells into the productive well stock was developed.
