Annotation:

The article considers technogenic processes that occur when developing kerogen-containing Bazhenov formation deposits applying various technologies such as thermal gas treatment, injection of supercritical carbon dioxide and super and subcritical water are considered. Some peculiar features and development of approaches to thermal hydrodynamic modeling of technogenic processes are analyzed. Based on laboratory studies and numerical simulation results, published in scientific literature, the development of Bazhenov formation reveals some common tasks, caused by common technogenic processes, as well as some specific features which are unique for each technology. Several technogenic in-situ processes during the development of Bazhenov formation deposits are typical for a wide range of development methods used for development of traditional oil resources as well. The result of the conducted research is the summary table of technogenic processes occurring throughout Bazhenov formation development.
