Аннотация:Based on the experience of developing an oil field on the Caspian Sea shelf, which was initially
exploited with injection of seawater into the oil-bearing beds to maintain reservoir pressure, the deposition of
sulfate salts under reservoir conditions is predicted. The prediction of sulfate deposition is made in two ways:
analytical calculations according to the method of J.E. Oddo and M.B. Thomson and computer modeling.
The prediction took the strontium content in the formation waters of the oil-field into account, which is usually
ignored in production practice. It has been established that the prediction by computer modeling is more
accurate; in particular, it considerably expands the temperature limits of anhydrite precipitation. The amount
of potentially precipitable sulfate salts found by computer modeling has shown that the mass of deposited calcium
and strontium sulfates is rather large, which can significantly reduce the permeability of the reservoir
