The paper reviews the prospect of diagnostics of multi-phase flow regime in multi-layer reservoir based on DTS data. The analysis of theoretical and actual curves of recovery and temperature reduce corresponding to the main regimes of multi-phase filtration of reservoir fluids has been carried out. The prospect of diagnostics of multi-phase flow regime based on the analysis and interpretation of recovery properties and temperature drop in various reservoir intervals during start, stop or change of well choke’s opening degree has been specified. The paper shows the prospect of diagnostics of flooding intervals based on the analysis of temperature change curves according to DTS data.
