Hydrochemical monitoring - an innovative direction for analysis and control of oil fields development

Key words: hydrochemical monitoring, hydrochemical methods, fields development, produced water.

The main results of testing hydrochemical methods of analysis and control of development, obtained in recent years during the hydrochemical monitoring at the oil fields in the Timan-Pechora oil-and-gas bearing province, are considered. It is shown that the hydrochemical monitoring can be considered as a highly effective and low-cost innovative direction of research, allowing to solve complex applied oilfield problems related to the analysis and control of the development of oil deposits.
