Using Monte Carlo Simulation to Evaluate Performance of Forecasting Models in Project Control
DownloadFall 2020
The construction sector is one of the largest in the world economy. Billions of dollars are spent every year to execute and deliver projects serving the public. However, internal and external factors – such as unexpected weather, financial difficulties, manpower shortages, and excessive change...

Using Co-Disposal Techniques to Achieve Stable “Dry-Stacked” Tailings: Geotechnical Properties of Blended Waste Rock and Tailings in Oil Sands and Metal Mining
DownloadFall 2021
Mine “tailings”, waste produced by the extraction process, are most typically stored in impoundments behind dams which are often constructed from the tailings themselves. These structures pose a serious geotechnical risk and are difficult to successfully reclaim at the end of mining. As highly...

Use of Temperature data for assisted history matching and characterization of SAGD heterogeneous reservoirs within EnKF framework
DownloadFall 2012
The Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF), a parameter estimation approach using the real-time DTS temperature observations is proposed for automatic history matching and quantitative reservoir characterization of SAGD reservoirs. EnKF algorithm is coupled with the discrete cosine transform (DCT) for...

Use of Nano-Metal Particles for Promoting Aquathermolysis Reaction during Cyclic Steam Stimulation
DownloadFall 2017
Cyclic steam stimulation (CSS) is one of the commonly used thermal extraction methods for heavy oil and bitumen. However, CSS is still daunted by the lower oil recovery factor compared with other thermal recovery methods, such as steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD). Nano-metal particles, due...

Use of Electrical Resistance Heating and Electrical Heater Heating to Remove Condensate Blockage in the Near-wellbore Region
DownloadSpring 2022
During the production of gas condensate from a reservoir, a gas condensate bank may be formed in the near-wellbore region, leading to reduced long-term productivity. The major existing remedial methods for removing the condensate bank include cyclic gas injection, solvent injection, wettability...
