METHOD OF DEVELOPING HYDROCARBON DEPOSITS Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: oil, gas and coal industries for hydrocarbons recovery at various stages of deposits development. SUBSTANCE: method includes drilling of wells, withdrawal of hydrocarbons from wells, directed treatment of zone of oil-gas accumulation and/or deposit by elastic waves from vibration source. Prior to treatment, geodynamic model of zone of oil-gas accumulation and/or deposit is constructed using remote and geological and geophysical data. Singled-out on said model are ring and block structures paragenetically associated with traps of hydrocarbons. Present stressed-strained state of rocks and its effect on reservoir properties are determined. Zone of present abnormal stressed-strained state of rocks of ring and/or block structures and center of said zone are determined. Installed above said center on day surface or water area bottom is vibration source for treatment of said zone with elastic waves. EFFECT: higher efficiency of deposit development at various stages of deposit operation, increased withdrawal of hydrocarbons and higher safety. 12 cl, 7 dwg, 3 ex
