Research work

As part of the HTS Exploration Ltd, a Research Institute has been operating for more than two decade, focused on carrying out research and design work in the oil and gas sector.

The institute’s highly professional staff is engaged in such current research topics as oil and gas field development design, oil and gas production, drilling, environmental protection, geology and development. The documentation that is created at the research institute of HTS Exploration Ltd includes scientific research in a very wide range of areas, including:

• development of a feasibility study for the construction of facilities;

• designer’s supervision of the implementation of construction projects;

• development of technical solutions aimed at optimizing and increasing the operational reliability of wells;

• justification of well operation methods;

• calculation of optimal parameters and operating modes of flowing and mechanized production installations;

• determining the effectiveness of various methods of influencing the bottom-hole zone of wells and developing technical solutions for their further improvement;

• development of technical projects for the construction of wells, sidetracks and horizontal wells;

• carrying out research work, developing proposals, activities and methods for introducing new equipment and technology for drilling wells;

• development of “Environmental Impact Assessment” projects;

• development of MPE (NDV) projects;

• development of environmental and subsoil protection sections for development, production, engineering and technology projects and reports on geological study of subsoil;

• performance of all types of work on environmental design and regulation in accordance with the license;

• design and analysis of work results at all stages of the geological exploration process;

• calculation of geological reserves of hydrocarbons at all stages of study and development of a field, from operational assessment during the exploration process to a detailed justification for the distribution of reserves in the productive section, that is, studying the structure of reserves in the process of field development;

• creation of geological foundations for design documents of all levels for field development;

• clarification of the geological foundations of deposits based on the results of operational drilling;

• analysis of the results of field geophysical research;

• study of reservoir rocks based on the results of laboratory core studies and comparison of reservoir characteristics based on core and well logging;

• identification and assessment of the effective thickness of reservoirs, determination of their porosity, clay content, permeability, oil and gas saturation and other parameters based on the results of interpretation of geophysical surveys of wells;

• feasibility study of oil recovery factor;

• design of development of oil and gas fields at all stages;

• geological and field analysis of field development;

• construction and monitoring of hydrodynamic models of development objects and fields.

The list of scientific services of the Research Institute of HTS Exploration Ltd allows us to fully meet the customer’s needs, while a complex of engineering and high-quality research work will be involved with optimal timing and an individual approach to each implemented project.

By objectively assessing their strengths, abilities and capabilities, the institute’s specialists confidently achieve their goals. The research institute has the required potential and uses effective organizational tools: the use of new technologies, quality management, a high level of employee qualifications and a steady increase in its level, innovative approaches and current technical solutions, effective management of
