As an important energy source for the economic development of our country, petroleum and chemical industry in our country is developing continuously with the progress of the society. At present, the petroleum and chemical industry in our country has gradually stepped into the forefront of the world. As a kind of non-renewable resources, oil is an important resource formed by the earth's geological process for thousands of years. Nowadays, the increasing demand for oil resources in the international community has resulted in the depletion of oil resources and the difficulty and complexity of oil exploitation projects. Therefore, under the current social environment of shortage of oil resources, effective measures must be taken to comprehensively enhance the geological exploration in the later stage, so as to fully cover the production benefits of oil field exploitation. This paper will sort out and analyze the geological potential tapping and efficiency enhancement in the later stage of oil field development.展开更多

However, considering the economic benefits and the surrounding environment of the oil field, it is an effective and economic way to improve the oil field and block recovery rate by implementing large displacement side drilling to replace the directional development of wells with the use of existing oil sites, facilities and equipment.展开更多
