Mechanics, the oldest branch of physics, to this day remains the
basis for modern technology. This is especially evident with regard
to the oil and gas industry. Almost all of the technological
processes in these branches of industry, from the drilling of wells
to the transporting of oil and gas products via pipelines, are
mechanical in their nature. The processes of the development of oil
and gas deposits are of primary importance in the whole
technological chain of oil and gas extraction from the rocks and
their transportation to the customer. The use of scientific methods
for improving technology is a long-established tradition of oil and
gas industry. For the Western reader, it is enough to mention the
fundamental treatises by the outstanding American research
scientist and engineer M. Muskat (1937, 1949) as well as the
excellent books of Scheidegger (1960) and Collins (1961) which
combine practical goals with profound theoretical analysis. The
initiators of the application of mechanics for solving problems of
the oil and gas industry in the U.S.S.R. were V.G. Shukhov (1981)
and LS. Leibenzon (1934, 1947, 1953, 1955) whose works constitute
admirable examples of Soviet technical thought. During recent
times, the magnitude of oil and gas extraction has increased
immensely and many reservoirs with complicated physical and
geological properties have, therefore, entered into the
development. The fundamental problem of enhancing oil and gas
recovery from rocks has been intensively and deeply analyzed.
