The efficiency of developing fields with abnormally high-viscosity oil reserves is achieved by using cyclic injection of thermal slugs of hot water and steam (as an active displacement reagent), propelled by slugs of unheated water. For greater efficiency of thermal methods for displacing high-viscosity oil, this paper offers to use thermal methods in combination with embedded emission-wave influences. The article presents the results of experiments using a mathematical model of cylindrical waves in the direction of the filtration flow of fluids. The effectiveness of cyclic control wave influences is shown. Complex problems associated with the application of hydrodynamic methods to weakly discontinuous vibrations in an inhomogeneous medium are noted and ways to resolve them are indicated. It is shown that the proposed combined thermal and vibration-wave control effects on the process of filtration displacement of abnormally high-viscosity oil fractions.
