Data-Driven Approaches to Estimate the Impact and Presence of Shale Barriers in SAGD Reservoirs
DownloadSpring 2019
Steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) is one of the most successful in-situ techniques and has been widely adopted for heavy oil and bitumen recovery. Steam chamber development and SAGD production performance are highly sensitive to the reservoir heterogeneity, thus characterizing shale...
