Abstract

This article presents the methodology of an approach to substantiate the coefficients of residual oil saturation and displacement of oil by water (hereinafter Kro and Kdis). A functional dependency that is not included in the GD “Rules for the preparation of technical projects for the development of hydrocarbon deposits“ is recommended for use.
