Mathematical Modeling of Oil Wells Productivity

Abstract

The paper describes a mathematical model of determining the potential productivity of oil wells and their current skin effect for most fields in Ukraine. Current skin effect is determined by comparing current productivity with potential productivity of the well. After application of stimulation methods the prospects for production increase and the amount of additional oil production are estimated. The correlation of prospected by the developed method additional oil production and actual production is an evidence of the effectiveness of the proposed model. Key words: well, productivity, skin effect, flow capacity, intensification.
