Core storage of LLC TyumenNIIgiprogaz

A core storage facility is a complex of buildings and structures of a warehouse and laboratory type intended for centralized storage of core material , conducting by the specialists of a complex of primary core research (core is a sample of rock extracted from a well), as well as the systematization of the results of these studies. In developed oil and gas producing countries ( USA , Canada , Norway , etc.), the preservation of the core and the information obtained in the process of studying it is a state task. The opening of the core storage allows you to increase the information content of exploration , and also helps to increase the efficiency of the development of natural hydrocarbon deposits.

One of the largest in Russia is the industry core storage facility, created in 2009 on the experimental base of Gazprom VNIIGAZ LLC . In Russia, the largest include: Center for core and formation fluid research of the Branch of LUKOIL-Engineering LLC KogalymNIPIneft, in the core storage of which about 90 thousand linear meters of core are concentrated; TNNC LLC - Tyumen Oil Research Center, part of the structure of Rosneft, which stores about 80 thousand linear meters of core; OAO TomskNIPIneft (also part of Rosneft).

In 2009, the Tyumen Scientific and Research Center for the study of core and formation fluids of LLC TyumenNIIgiprogaz was opened, the first stage of which is designed to store 70 thousand linear meters. meters core. After the delivery of the second stage, the storage volume will increase to 210 thousand pogs. meters. ^[1] .
