Technology of Acoustic Influence
for Production Optimization of Oil,
Gas and Water Wells.
Optimizing the effectiveness of oil, gas and
water wells on different stages of their
exploitation is one of the directions in water,
oil and gas production, that show
considerable promise. For that reason, active
work in this field has always been conducted
by research of scientific and engineering
centres. The result of this work is rather big
quantity of various methods that are now
used in different corners of the world.
DFM Technology
The most progressive method - the acoustic one - has been
used by us to create the DFM-technology i.e. technology of
acoustic influence on the productive strata. The technology
uses the ultrasound, which is irradiated by specially
developed piezoceramics.
The DFM-technology allows to increase production in several
times (30-300 percent) for oil, gas and water wells. It is made
through breaking up the clogged strata zones and the ones
with poor permeability. The DFM is based on using the MF
ultrasound pulses. It is covered by patents of Russia and
Ukraine and is characterized by absolute ecological safety,
high effectiveness and low power inputs.
An important asset of the DFM-technology is that the
extraction is stopped only for a short time exploitation of a
developed well. Effect increases for a long time, depending
on the geological and production characteristics of strata.

DFM Technology
For more than 5 years, we has been using the DFM technology at various oil, gas and water fields both in
Ukraine and abroad. Within this period, we have managed to
achieve serious success in terms of development of the
technique and equipment.

Economic Effectiveness of Applying
DFM -technology
According to the recommendations on al-around effectiveness
evaluation, economic effect from the carrying out the work pursuant
to DFM technology is determined by showing the economic effect.
Calculation of the effectiveness is based on index of a daily oil (gas)
production before and after DFM -technology was used during a
certain period of time.
Calculation of Economic Effectiveness of Applying
DFM at Oil Wells
Assuming:
Тd = 6 * 30 = 180 (days).
Qo = 30 t/d.
Qав = 50 t/d.
P = 430 $/t. ( 68 $/bar. )
Then:
We define additional production DQ = 20 t/d .( + 65% )
Cost Estimation Ce = 20*430*180*=1 580 000 $.
The economic analysis is evidence of high profitability and payback
of DFM -technology used on oil-wells.
Required Preliminary Information on Wells
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Well depth;
The level of static (the level of liquid in the well) and dynamic pressures;
Wellbottom zone temperature;
Perforation intervals;
Tubing running depth;
Tubing pipes diameter (is natural flow free);
Project site information (name and date of the formation in the perforation
zone);
Well commissioning date and initial well production rate;
History and dates of the bottom-hole formation treatment activities
(acidizing, surfactant treatment, etc.);
Dates of the latest well-logging measurements;
Current well production rate (before ultrasound application);
Presence of any oil-water contact in the perforation zone (if yes, its
location is to be specified).
Hydrocarbon-type composition of the oil. Note: more important factors
from these specifications are: Density, gas factor, content of the water
(per cent)
Requirements to Wells Being Enhanced
• Accessways are required to reach the platform for
equipment installation (jacking log-processing station,
portable log-processing laboratory and jacking lubricator
installation).
• Calibering is required before the start of the works in
order to provide free access of geophysical equipment
and ultrasonic transducer to the perforation zone.
• Well treatment zone should not be blanked off by tubing
string pipes. The treated wells may be the ones that are:
• - currently exploited;
• - under major overhaul.
• The treatment zone is to contain liquid medium. The
level of liquid in the treatment zone should exceed the
treatment zone.
Our technology allows to use the old well and maximally exploitation
of their primary opportunities. This examples prove high and rapid
economic effectiveness of applying DFM-technology on oil and gas
wells, even in case of comparatively insignificant increase of
production and minimal period of treatment.
The DFM-technology has been successfully tested
on gas condensate and oil fields of Ukraine and
Russia. Considerable well and hydrocarbons
production increase (from 30 up to 300 percent) has
been achieved, which is supported by the certificates
of intake capacity tests of KHARKOVGAZDOBYCHA,
UKRNIIGAZ and TATNIPINEFT and many others.
Out of an experimental method, the DFM has become
an industrial highly effective and developed
technology. For the present, our organization is the
leader in the field of acoustic influence technologies in
Ukraine.
