GAS-DYNAMIC FORMATION FRACTURING METHOD Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC E21B43/263 

FIELD: oil and gas industry.

SUBSTANCE: method involves assembly of a pressure generator in the form of a group of cylindrical solid fuel charges with central through channels, lowering of the pressure generator to the well, installation of the pressure generator at the specified depth of the well, supply of a signal for ignition of charges and fracturing of the formation. In the existing casing string of the well, preliminary perforation density is performed as 30-45 holes per running metre, assembly of a pressure generator is performed out of three groups of solid fuel charges with location of charges of the first group below charges of the second and the third groups; the pressure generator is installed in the well above the perforation interval so that ratio of distance between upper perforation boundary and lower charge of the first group to length of perforation interval comprises the value of 0.3-0.6. The first group of charges has a charge with an igniter and total design weight of all charges, which provides the possibility of ignition of above located charges of the second group with the developed combustion surface and gas emission at combustion, which provides opening of existing vertical fractures in the formation and initiation of combustion of charges of the third group, which provide non-reversible deformation of mine rocks of the formation with creation of a residual vertical fracture.

EFFECT: improving filtration properties of the formation throughout its thickness.
