Combined development of oil and salt layers in an oil field

Abstract

Abstract The problem of complex development and simultaneous use of hydrocarbon mining raw materials in the oil field is relevant for a number of domestic and foreign fields. Combined development of oil and salt layers in an oil field allows obtain a saline solution to intensify oil recovery from productive layer and create an underground reservoir in salt layer for underground storage of hydrocarbons, including creating an underground gas storage (UGS) in rock salt. Joint development of oil and salt reservoirs in the oil field allows to obtain a salt solution of a certain concentration for subsequent injection into the oil reservoir to intensify the capacity (underground reservoir) in the salt reservoir for underground storage of hydrocarbons, including the creation of an underground gas storage (UGS) of associated petroleum gas in rock salt. In this article, the authors used the method of theoretical, practical and experimental studies of complex development of oil and salt reservoirs in the oil field. For the first time in the world practice, joint development of oil and salt reservoirs was carried out at the Talakan oil field.
