Since oil and gas products currently act as the main source of fuel in energy consumption, promising approaches to the development of reservoir heavy oil play an important role. Many existing traditional oil production methods do not give the desired results in the production of viscous oils, and in some cases are unacceptable.
A sharp decrease in extracted oil reserves is caused by an increase in the volume of difficult - to-extract oil, an increase in fields with complex geophysical conditions, and an increase in carbonate reservoirs with high viscosity. In order to increase the technical and economic indicators of the oil being developed under such conditions, the main task is to find new equipment and technologies for influencing the formation, its introduction into production.
The study of the geological and physical properties of the treated layer allows us to consider new highly cost-effective technologies for increasing the productivity of high-viscosity oil by paying attention to the factors involved in the production process.
The article discusses studies of increasing productivity through the use of carbon dioxide in viscous oil fields, features of the described method, changes due to various parameters.
