Annotation:

The article considers the influence of infiltration epigenesis on the reservoir properties of fluid-bearing rocks of oil and gas reservoirs, emphasizes the role of the geochemical activity of meteoric waters in the development of the processes of dissolution, leaching, precipitation and re-deposition of mineral components in carbonate and sulfate rocks, as well as metasomatism in terrigenous deposits. According to the hydro-chemical and geochemical data of the Kharasaveyskoye gas-condensate field, the indicators of the reservoir water aggressiveness in relation to reservoir rocks various minerals are calculated, and the main processes that affect the change of the rocks reservoir properties are identified. They primarily include kaolinitization and carbonatization. Taking into account these processes, the interdependence of the reservoir water aggressiveness coefficient with the reservoir rocks porosity coefficient, the depths of the Lower Cretaceous complex deposits of the field were revealed and explained. The proposed approach can be used when studying the hydro-chemical environment influence on the reservoirs filtration parameters, assessing the formation waters aggressiveness (characterized by traces of ancient infiltration) relative to rock-forming minerals as well as predicting changes of rocks reservoir properties in other hydrocarbon fields.
