Enhancing Reservoir Productivity Using Hiway Hydraulic Fracturing Method at Amangeldi Field
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This project explores the application of hydraulic fracturing methods to enhance reservoir productivity at the Amangeldi field. The study focused on the advanced HIWAY method, which optimizes proppant placement to improve hydrocarbon recovery. Mathematical models were developed to evaluate key parameters of this technique and implemented using FracPro software, enabling detailed simulation and analysis. Data for this study were gathered from publicly available sources, including OnePetro and ScienceDirect, ensuring a comprehensive review of current practices and innovations. Additional information was obtained during dual training at the Amangeldi field, providing practical insights and aligning the models with field-specific conditions. Contributions from scientific journals further enriched the study, supporting the integration of theoretical and empirical approaches. The findings aim to guide future hydraulic fracturing operations and highlight the potential of the HIWAY method to maximize efficiency, reduce operational costs, and mitigate environmental impact. This project underscores the importance of combining advanced modeling with hands-on field experience to address challenges in reservoir management.
