This article deals with the measuring of part of the hardly exploiting oil from the general oil reserves (Heavy Oil).The work includes the study of the specificities of the occurrence of such anomalous viscosities, the effect on structurally formed oil, the given applicable methods, the capacity of reducing the emergence of thixotropic properties of viscous oil. The technique of experimental researches and results of studying the influence of the plasma-pulse action based on the rheological properties of a highly viscous oil deposits is analysed.

In this article the analysis of the current condition of oil recovery at deposits of Russia and the world is presented. The technology of plasma-pulse influence, the operation principle and the basic technical characteristics of equipment are described. The technique of experimental research of the complex technology influence on oil filtration properties of the Usinsk oil deposit is resulted. Results of the filtration research of high-viscous oil in bottom hole formation after plasma-pulse and physical-chemical treatment in various thermobaric conditions are shown.
