Salt formation in oil extraction and hydrogeological conditions impact on it
Keywords:
salt formation, an oil field, nucleation, temperature, pressure, solubilityAbstract
The process of salt formation in the development of oil fields and the urgency of this problem for industrial petroleum geologists has been considered. The article presents the relationship between hydrogeological environment and oil and gas deposits, as well as the influence of hydrogeological conditions on them. Hydrogeological properties of oil deposits are singled out into a separate category, which affects the formation of salts directly in the oil field development. There are examples of oil fields in different countries where the problem of salt formation was faced. Thus, water is regarded as a major source of salt. The article lists basic salts, most commonly found in the development of oil fields. It also describes what and at the expense of what salt can be formed.
