Keywords: thermal gas treatment, air injection, enhanced oil recovery methods, oil oxidation, combustion initiation, thermal geochemical criteria

Annotation:

The article considers various methods for determining the time and temperature at which oil will ignite when air is injected. It is shown how the parameters of oil ignition are related not only to the kinetic data of oxidation reactions, but also to the thermobaric parameters and the deposits reservoir properties. The thermal geochemical criteria for the air injection applicability are derived based on the data on the ignition time of oil in the formation and the values of the Frank – Kamenetsky parameter, which characterizes heat dissipation during the ignition period.
