At present probability of discovering new high-output oil deposits in Orenburg is very small. Therefore, the resource base perfection reduces to identification of prospective geological objects previously understudied, but high-quality core development changed the idea of the potential of the latter ones. The article shows the errors while effective thicknesses allocation in carbonate reservoirs of sulfate-carbonate formation. Reduction of risks and uncertainty corridor in the assessment of geological oil resources can be achieved by deep study of core and use of extended GIS complex.

 

Key words: Okskian super-horizon; sulfate-carbonate formation; natural radioactivity of rocks; effective thicknesses; deep mineralogical studies.

At a number of fields, located in the Western Siberia, improved-quality reservoirs tend to linear zones with increased per­meability accompanied by litho-mineralogical, catagenetic and hydro-geochemical anomalies. These areas are well traced in regional geological-seismic profiles. The anomalies formation is related to fluid migration through long-lived deep faults that penetrated from the basement to various levels of the Jurassic sedimentary cover. The authors of the present article compiled a set of regional maps of mineralogical and hydro-chemical ano­malies of the Low-Middle Jurassic horizons of sandy sedimentation in the Western Siberian sedimentary mega-basin. The maps show confinement of the main litho-mineralogical catagenetic and hydro-geochemical anomalies to deep fault zones and their intersections. Vertical amplitude of the revealed anomalies development reflects the levels of hydrothermal solution penetration into the Jurassic sedimentary cover along the deep faults zones and tectonic fracturing. The data obtained may be used for prediction of areas with improved reservoir. Rocks with higher concentrations of trace elements are detected in the Upper Jurassic clayish bituminous deposits of the Bazhenov horizon. It was established that high-carbon deposits formed in depressions and on the slopes of the seamounts and are not always found in the anoxic zone. In addition, direct correlation between organic hydrocarbon content and concentrations of some trace elements in the rocks of Bazhenov horizon is often missing. It is assumed, that the favorable conditions for the burial of organic material and the formation of oil source high-carbon clay and clay-siliceous sediments in the Bazhenov basin could also occur in the areas of gas-thermal fluids seepage.

 

Key words: Western Siberia; Jurassic deposits; Bazhenov horizon; mineralogical and geochemical anomalies; petroleum potential.

The present article suggests some variant of the structural-tectonic composition of Gatchinsky underground gas storage facility (UGS) and adjacent territories, based on a large amount of factual well logging data to clarify the absolute elevations and to building a structure map, as well as data of hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon gases for "desjuctive" violations, definition of gas-water contact (GVC), leaks and gas accumulations.

"Desjuctive" violations of the north-eastern direction form the "steps", immersed in the south-eastern direction. Five "steps" are allocated. The fourth "step" is Gatchinsky structure, complicated by five blocks.

 

Key words: underground gas storage (UGS); gas-geochemi­cal method; tectonic fault.

The article considers the main factors of geological characteristic that affect the hydraulic fracturing efficiency such as oil-saturated thickness of a formation and its initial permeability. The parameter characterizing the dimension of a formation hydraulic fracturing, making a fracture half-length, is determined. The above-mentioned requirements for the fracture half-length are justified from the geological point of view as well as development of oil and gas fields. Field data analysis confirmed the influence of the initial permeability of a productive formation and its oil-saturated thickness on the efficiency and duration of a formation hydraulic fracturing. The factors affecting the proppant bedding in the fracture created due to the formation hydraulic fracturing as well as the influence of geological environment stress on the fracturing process are identified.

Herewith, the influence of a wellbore inclination angle in the interval of the formation hydraulic fracturing on the hydraulic fracturing gradient is proved. It is determined that the breakdown pressure decrease goes together with the inclination angle increa­se, however, the fracture half-length reduces due to the pressure decrease aimed to the fracture length distension leading to uncon­trolled fracture "over blowing" and vertical proppant bedding.

 

Key words: geological characteristic of an oil and gas deposit; formation hydraulic fracturing; fracture; permeability; inclination angle; proppant; efficiency; oil-saturated thickness; pressure gradient; well.

The paper presents an overview of up-to-date foreign articles devoted to clay minerals and clay cement in sandy rocks. The sources of clay material income into sandstones are discussed. A brief characteristic of the main clayish phases of cement, such as kaolinite, smectite, illite and chlorite, is given. The problems of clay cement evolution during the early and late diagenesis of sandstones are considered. The impact of clay minerals on capacitive-volumetric properties of reservoir rocks is discussed.

 

Key words: clay minerals; sandstone; clay cement; evolution.
