Modeling of filtration processes upon cyclic operation of oil production well (Q2827941)

The increasing of oil wells productivity nowadays is the keystone of the petroleum production. The investigation of filtration processes, provided a cyclic operation of the oil well in the case where the oil pressure is not constant but changes periodically, is an important theoretical problem. It is supposed that the oil-bearing formation has an inhomogeneous layered structure containing stratified layers with high and low levels of penetration. It is found that periodic impacts on the bottom hole pressure can elevate the intensity of transverse overflows between stratified layers near the bore zone which potentially can guarantee an increasing of the oil production.
