Multilateral wells drilling technology is neither new nor growing. But she is mature enough in the oil industry is still not considered. And this despite the fact that the world has already drilled thousands of multilateral wells. Due to the decrease of the world's hydrocarbon reserves oil and gas companies use technology to increase the recovery rate of product formation. This technology will allow the company OOO “LUKOIL-Nizhnevolzhskoil” the costs associated with the construction of wells, as well as improve the economic efficiency of the project development and exploitation.

Key words: многоствольная горизонтальная скважина, дебит, коэффициент извлечения нефти, добыча, боковой ствол, двухствольная скважина, продуктивный пласт, фильтрационное сопротивление, коэффициент продуктивности, залежь, multi-lateral horizontal well production rate
