В статье систематизированы механизмы повреждения проницаемости, связанные с водочувствительностью глинистых минералов, – межслоевое набухание смектита, осмотические эффекты, дефлоккуляция и миграция тонких частиц, – а также рассмотрены каналы нецелевого расхода стабилизаторов глин (KCl, четвертичные аммониевые соединения) и деструкторов геля (персульфат аммония, пероксид водорода, ферменты) на минералы породы и сопутствующие добавки. Показано, что номинальная дозировка реагента без учета материального баланса может одновременно завышать степень стабилизации глин и степень разрушения полимерной сетки. Предложена минимальная матрица лабораторных испытаний, включающая рентгенофазовый анализ ориентированных препаратов, изотермы сорбции, coreflood и тесты на удержанную проводимость трещины. На примере месторождения Восточный Молдабек (АО «Эмбамунайгаз») показано, что снижение проницаемости пласта при насыщении слабоминерализованной водой связано с набуханием глин и слюды, тогда как использование пластовой воды такой деградации не вызывает. Обоснована и реализована технология ГРП на пластовой воде с применением геля на основе полиакриламида взамен гуаровой камеди, неприменимой при минерализации воды более 130 г/л. По результатам ГРП на восьми скважинах дебит после обработки на пластовой воде и синтетическом полимере превысил показатели стандартной технологии более чем в пять раз.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The effectiveness of hydraulic fracturing (HF) largely depends on how well fracture conductivity is preserved after the fracturing fluid interacts with the reservoir rock. This paper systematizes the permeability-damage mechanisms related to the water sensitivity of clay minerals interlayer smectite swelling, osmotic effects, deflocculation and fines migration and examines the non-target consumption pathways of clay stabilizers (KCl, quaternary ammonium compounds) and gel breakers (ammonium persulfate, hydrogen peroxide, enzymes) on rock minerals and co-additives. It is shown that the nominal reagent dosage, evaluated without a material balance, can simultaneously overestimate both the degree of clay stabilization and the extent of polymer network degradation. A minimum laboratory testing matrix is proposed, including oriented-sample XRD analysis, sorption isotherms, coreflood tests and retained fracture-conductivity tests. Using the Vostochny Moldabek field (Embamunaigaz JSC) as a case study, it is shown that the permeability decline observed when the reservoir is saturated with low-salinity water is caused by clay and mica swelling, whereas formation water does not cause such degradation. A formation­water-based fracturing technology is substantiated and implemented, using a polyacrylamide-based gel instead of guar gum, which is unsuitable at a water salinity above 130 g/L. Field results from eight wells show that production rates after fracturing on formation water with the synthetic polymer exceeded those of the standard technology by more than five times.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>гидравлический разрыв пласта</kwd><kwd>набухание глин</kwd><kwd>миграция тонких частиц</kwd><kwd>проводимость трещины</kwd><kwd>стабилизаторы глин</kwd><kwd>деструктор геля</kwd><kwd>пластовая вода</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>hydraulic fracturing</kwd><kwd>clay swelling</kwd><kwd>fines migration</kwd><kwd>fracture conductivity</kwd><kwd>clay stabilizers</kwd><kwd>gel breaker</kwd><kwd>formation water.</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Deon, F., van Ruitenbeek, F., van der Werff, H., van der Meijde, M., and Marcatelli, C.
