- Abstract:
- The article provides a comprehensive study of the application of the recycling process for the development of gas condensate fields in Western Siberia with a high gas condensate factor (more than 200 g/m3). The article discusses the physical and chemical principles of the method, which involves maintaining the reservoir pressure above the condensation pressure to prevent retrograde loss of condensate in the reservoir. The article presents a mathematical description of the process, including the calculation of the reservoir coverage factor based on the dimensionless injection volume and the permeability variation coefficient. The methodology includes the use of compositional hydrodynamic modeling using multi-component two-phase filtration equations and state equations. A comparative technical and economic analysis of various development scenarios was conducted, revealing an increase in the condensate recovery factor from 45% to 85%. The critical impact of geological heterogeneity and tax conditions on the economic efficiency of the project was established. The research findings can be useful in designing development systems for new gas condensate fields in Western Siberia with a high gas condensate factor to maximize the condensate recovery factor.
