A prerequisite for the application of such methods is the creation of a depression of sufficient magnitude and duration in wells to form man-made microfractures. The paper discusses cyclic geomechanical treatment (CGT), one of the methods for increasing the productivity of oil wells in carbonate reservoirs based on the creation of a deep depression in a well. Effective planning and application of such methods requires understanding the mechanism of microfracturing in the vicinity of a well when a critical pore pressure reduction value is reached. The aim of this study is to substantiate the geomechanical mechanism of microfracturing formation consistent with the results of laboratory studies of core samples and the application of CGT and related methods in wells. The objectives of the study included analyzing the characteristics of laboratory experiments and their results, identifying possible mechanisms and criteria for the formation of microfracturing, and conducting coupled hydrogeomechanical modeling with an assessment of the characteristic dimensions of the affected area. It has been shown that the results of the laboratory experiments and experimental application of the CGT method are inconsistent with the shear failure mechanism, but can be explained by the compaction failure mechanism. Coupled numerical hydrogeomechanical modeling of the pilot CGT application in a well was performed with an assessment of the compaction failure criteria parameters based on core data. The estimated radius of the stimulation zone was approximately 7 m, with the estimated increase in the productivity index to be consistent with actual data.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Методы создания околоскважинной области микротрещиноватости (разуплотнения породы коллектора) за счет глубокого снижения порового давления и основанные на них способы повышения продуктивности скважин активно развиваются в рамках научной деятельности институтов РАН в последние десятилетия. Обязательным условием применения таких методов является создание достаточной по величине и продолжительности депрессии на скважинах для формирования техногенной микротрещиноватости. В статье рассматривается циклическое геомеханическое воздействие (ЦГВ) – один из методов увеличения продуктивности нефтяных скважин в карбонатных коллекторах, основанных на создании глубокой депрессии на скважине. Эффективное планирование и применение таких методов связано с пониманием механизма возникновения микротрещиноватости в околоскважинной зоне при достижении критической величины снижения порового давления. Целью работы является обоснование геомеханического механизма формирования микротрещиноватости, согласующегося с результатами лабораторных исследований керна и применения ЦГВ и близких ему методов на скважинах. Задачи исследования включали анализ особенностей постановки лабораторных экспериментов и их результатов, определение возможных механизмов и критериев формирования микротрещиноватости, а также проведение сопряженного гидрогеомеханического моделирования с оценкой характерных размеров области воздействия. Показано, что результаты лабораторных экспериментов и опытного применения метода ЦГВ не согласуются с механизмом сдвигового разрушения, но могут быть объяснены механизмом разрушения сжатия. Выполнено сопряженное численное гидрогеомеханическое моделирование опытного применения ЦГВ на скважине с оценкой параметров критерия разрушения сжатия по керновым данным. Расчетный радиус зоны воздействия составил около 7 м, при этом оцененный прирост коэффициента продуктивности хорошо согласуется с фактическими данными.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>проницаемость</kwd><kwd>увеличение продуктивности скважин</kwd><kwd>циклическое геомеханическое воздействие</kwd><kwd>геомеханический критерий</kwd><kwd>гистерезисные эффекты</kwd><kwd>гидродинамико-геомеханическое моделирование</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>well</kwd><kwd>productivity</kwd><kwd>permeability</kwd><kwd>reservoir</kwd><kwd>microfracturing</kwd><kwd>cyclic geomechanical treatment</kwd><kwd>fracturing (failure)</kwd><kwd>geomechanical criterion</kwd><kwd>hysteresis</kwd><kwd>modeling</kwd><kwd>experiment</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group xml:lang="ru"><funding-statement>Работа выполнена в рамках выполнения Государственного задания ИПНГ РАН по теме 122022800272-4 «Совершенствование методов моделирования, лабораторных и промысловых исследований для создания новых технологий эффективного экологически чистого извлечения углеводородов в сложных горно-геологических условиях»</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Закиров С.
