Offer applies to the oil industry, namely, the way of development of deposits of high-viscosity oil.

There is a method of development of deposits of high-viscosity oil (RF patent №2062865, IPC 21 43/20, publ. in bull. №36 of 27.06.1996), in accordance with which the Deposit of high-viscosity oil Buryat vertical injection and horizontal production wells. Fluid injected through the injection wells and simultaneously periodically through horizontal wells until the break of coolant to the vertical producing wells. After the breakthrough of the heat carrier through injection wells pumped displacement agent, and through horizontal wells carry out the selection of sand and reservoir fluid.

The disadvantage of this method is that it does not allow to develop oil reservoir with achievement of high oil recovery. Probable fast-break the coolant from the injection well in mining, which reduces efficiency and increases the cost to implement.

Closest to the technical nature and the achieved result is a way of development of deposits of high-viscosity oil (patent RU №2334095, IPC 21 43/24, publ. 20.09.2008), including the drilling of vertical injection wells and horizontal wells, injection of the agent through injection wells and oil withdrawal through production wells. Horizontal wellbore production well spend 1.5-2.5 m above the sole of the productive formation and perforate. Above the horizontal of the trunk of the production well 3.5 to 4.5 m placed bottom of a vertical injection wells, punched in the range of 0.5-1.5 m from the bottom. Vertical injection well placed from the vertical shaft of the production well at a distance of greater than 2/3 of the length of the horizontal section of the production well, until the end of the horizontal wellbore, as the agent of the steam used in alternation with the air.

Disadvantage of this method is the probability of rapid breakthrough coolant due to the small distance between the bottom of the extraction and injection wells (3,5-(3,5-4,5 m). In this context, the high costs and low efficiency. Method is not suitable for development of deposits with sloping contact.

The technical objectives of the process are functioning in deposits with sloping contact, lowering the water cut from the reservoir, the exception breakthrough of the heat carrier in the production well, reducing the cost of exclusion construction of additional injection well.

The technical problem is solved by a method of development of deposits of high-viscosity oil, including the drilling of vertical injection wells and horizontal wells, injection of the agent through injection wells and oil withdrawal through production wells.

What is new is that determine the level of the oil-water contact (KSS), mining of horizontal horizontal from the mouth to the slaughter well Buryat with the location of at least 2-3 m above the level of VNK, vertical injection well Buryat with the location of the slaughter on-bottom of the production well above 5-8 m, perforate producing well on all length of gradient section, vertical injection well perforate in the area of the reservoir towards the mouth of the well, in stages as a breakthrough working agent or irrigation products above 95% slaughter extractive horizontal well cut above the zone of a breakthrough irrigation zone and the opening of the delivery chink cut off the bottom 1/3-1/2 of the whole of its length, in providing all of the zone of the mouth of the extractive directional, horizontal wells translated by injection of the agent.

The drawing shows the layout of vertical injection well and the tilt-a horizontal well.

Way of development of deposits of high-viscosity oil is as follows.

In the productive formation 1 determine the level of the oil-water contact (KSS) 2, in case the level of VNK inclined 2', determine the angle. Next Buryats and equip horizontally-sloping producing well with 3-slaughter above the level of VNK 2 at least 2-3 m, through which goes selection of products of the reservoir 1. Perforate hole 3 around the trunk. In case of development of deposits with sloping level of VNK T tilt-3 horizontal well drilled above KSS T with distance from it at least 2-3 m Next drilled a vertical injection wells 4 with the location of the slaughter at a distance of 5-8 m on-bottom horizontal inclined extractive wells 3. After construction of the vertical well 4 through it is pumped working agent. As a working agent steam is used, for example, with a temperature of 180 to 250 OC and dryness of 0.8 D. units To reduce heat loss and a steam chamber over the pan and horizontal wells 3 discharge vertical borehole 4 perforate towards the mouth of the pan and horizontal wells 3. Further on a way of stages as a breakthrough coolant or achievements percent irrigation products above 95% slaughter extractive directional, horizontal wells 4 cut above the zone of rupture, or irrigation. Insulation section of the wellbore or breakthrough coolant in it, you can use various deaf packers or compositions, as well as, for example, clay or cement mortar. In the case of timely isolation area of problem can almost completely eliminate the problem of breakthrough coolant, thereby achieve savings during injection of the agent, and also to prevent a drop in pressure, which gives a high influx of products in the production well. Zone opening injection well cut off the bottom 1/3-1/2 of the whole of its length, for example, deaf packers or compounds. Such a decision is caused by the fact that with a small (5-8 m) distance between face extractive 3 and discharge 4 wells allows to reach production at an earlier stage of operation of the reservoir 1, but while the same can break working agent. Consequently, after warming up inter-well bottom zone injection well bottom 4 should be isolated, then the injection of the agent is to be made in the upper interval of productive layer 1, and thus the resulting steam Luggage over mining pan and horizontal wells 3 will push the products of upstream of the reservoir 1, the decision gives less possibility of breakthrough working agent. When developing overall power zone mouth of the extractive directional, horizontal wells 3 translated by injection of the agent.

The offered way of development of deposits of high-viscosity oil was implemented at the Deposit with the following geological and physical characteristics:

Average depth of the object - 85 m

The average total thickness of layer - 26 PM

The level of VNK - 84 m

The value of the initial reservoir pressure - 0,45 MPa.

The initial reservoir temperature is 8 degrees C.

Density coefficient of oil in the reservoir conditions - 0,965 kg/m

The coefficient of dynamic viscosity of the oil in situ - 12000 MPa·C.

The coefficient of dynamic viscosity of the water reservoir conditions - 1.3 MPa·C.

The value of the average permeability of the core in the reservoir - 1500 microns.

Average porosity of core in the reservoir - 0.08 D. units

Above inclined level KSS T at a distance of 2.5 m built pan and 3 horizontal well with a length of horizontal horizontal section 150 m, which hydromechanical hammer PGM-120 throughout. Built a vertical borehole 4 with the placement of a face 6.8 m above the bottom of the borehole 3. In the borehole 4 again opened layer 1 on the length of 12 m unilateral hydromechanical hammer PGM-0-120 towards the wellhead 3, orientable in the borehole with the help of geophysical navigation equipment. At break of a heat carrier bottom part of the wells 3 at a distance of 40 m from the face filled the mud solution. Vertical borehole 4 at a distance of 5 m from the face filled with cement mortar, exclude completely the possibility of breakthrough fluid from the borehole 4 in the hole 3. Continued operation of wells 3 and 4 until all the water flooding products (above 95%) in the production wells 3 moved by injection of the agent. As a result of the use of the proposed method has allowed to receive the accumulated oil production by 12% higher than the closest analogue.

The presented method, and the method of the prototype were simulated in software complex CMG module STARS on the object with the same geological and physical characteristics for different operating conditions. From the obtained results also revealed the advantage of a method before prototype: lowering the water cut from the reservoir, the exception breakthrough of the heat carrier in the production well, cumulative oil production is higher than the prototype, by 10-15%.

Way of development of deposits of high-viscosity oil, including the drilling of vertical injection wells and controlled directional horizontal wells, injection of the agent through injection wells and oil withdrawal through production wells, characterized in that determine the level of water and oil contact - VNK, mining tilt-horizontal, from the mouth to the slaughter well Buryat with the location of at least 2-3 m above the level of VNK, vertical injection well Buryat with the location of the slaughter on-bottom of the production well above 5-8 m, perforate production well along the entire length of gradient section, vertical injection well perforate in the area of the reservoir towards the mouth of the well, in stages as a breakthrough working agent or irrigation products above 95% slaughter extractive directional, horizontal wells cut above the zone of rupture, or irrigation zone and the opening of the delivery chink cut off the bottom 1/3-1/2 of the whole of its length, in providing all of the zone of the mouth of the extractive directional, horizontal wells translated by injection of the agent.
