The Kruk oil and gas field development is characterized by its geological structure and various technological indicators. A comprehensive evaluation of the field’s properties has allowed for the determination of recoverable oil reserves using water-based oil displacement techniques. Two scenarios were considered for field development: one with an initial well mesh and another with a densified well grid. The results demonstrated the high efficiency of well grid densification during the later stages of field development. This optimization strategy led to a notable increase in the rate of oil withdrawal and enhanced the recovery of geological reserves. The densification of the well grid improved the overall efficiency of oil production and contributed to maximizing the extraction of available oil reserves. The findings highlight the importance of employing advanced technological strategies to enhance oil and gas field development. By carefully considering the geological structure and implementing well grid densification when appropriate, it is possible to optimize oil recovery, increase productivity, and effectively utilize the available geological reserves in the Kruk field.
