This article focuses on determining relations between blocks and practical application of the results of indicator study method in order to determine the porosity and permeability properties of fractured carbonate formations. According to this study method, the introduction of complementary technologies to improve the existing development system was proposed.</p>fractured reservoirstracer studyindicator studiespermeabilityinter-block reservoir connectivityжарылған коллекторлартрассерлік зерттеуиндикаторлық зерттеулерөткізгіштікблокаралық байланыстрещиноватые коллекторытрассерное исследованиеиндикаторные исследованияпроницаемостьмежблоковая сообщаемость1.Sokolovskiy EV, Solovyev GB, Trenchikov YI.
