Key words: production well, the complications in the extraction of oil, technology of gas utilization, utilization of associated petroleum gas (APG).

Depletion developed deposits in close proximity to the user leads to the fact that the share of hard stocks that contributes to the development of small, distant fields. Involvement in the development of small fields is complicated by high capital investment for the construction of oil and gas production facilities. Modern requirements for the design of field development, involve the fullest use of harvested resources, and especially the associated petroleum gas (APG). To simplify and systematization of design solutions aimed at increasing the share of APG small deposits offered methodological bases and the sequence of selection of technical and economically reasonable way of APG utilization.
