THE STRESS-STRAIN CONDITION RECONSTRUCTIONS FOR THE FORECAST OF PERMEABLE DIRECTIONS OF THE BASEMENT OF THE WHITE TIGER OILFIELD

The results of the fault systems analysis and stress-deformed state of rocks by example of White Tiger are discussed for the purposes of studying filtration heterogeneity of fractured reservoirs. It is shown that the problem of geometrization of fractured reservoirs lies in the sphere of 3D seismic opportunities on creation of structural model of the fractured reservoirs and detailed reconstructions of stress-deformed state of rocks. The special type of the shift-nature faults – the horizontal Strike-Slip Faults Structures (SSFS) controlling a wide spectrum
of structural, tectonic and hydrodynamic anomalies of oil and gas content structures is identified. The study of spatial-azimuthally and kinematical characteristics of Strike-Slip Faults allows restoring orientation of stress axes for shear deformation field. Reconstruction of the stress-deformed state is the basis for hydrodynamic modeling for the anisotropic rocks (for the fractured reservoirs) and the basis for predicting quantitative parameters of hydrofrac fractures and artificial fractures of reservoir pressure maintenance.
