ALBAHLANI, ALMUATASIM MOHAMMED
This thesis introduces a new approach for heavy-oil recovery from fractured reservoirs: Steam-Over-Solvent Injection in Fractured Reservoirs (SOS-FR). The SOS-FR technique is a new technology proposed as an alternative method to the sole injection of steam or solvent and consists of three...

This thesis introduces a model emulsion that replicates the physical features of steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) reservoir emulsion. Moreover, a framework was presented which enables adjusting the emulsion properties such as dynamic viscosity, size of the droplets, kinetic stability, and...

Optimization of steam/solvent injection methods: Application of hybrid techniques with improved algorithm configuration
DownloadFall 2012
Heavy oil and bitumen recovery processes need to be optimized in order to increase the recovery, reduce costs, and minimize the environment impact. Most of the optimization studies published in petroleum engineering literature focus on a few design parameters by combining the elements of...

Potential carbon losses from peat profiles: effects of temperature, drought cycles and fire
Download1992
Wein, R. W., Hogg, E. H., Lieffers, V. J.
Abstract: Global warming and the resultant increase in evapotranspiration might lead to lowered water tables in peatlands and an increase in fire frequency. The objective of this study was to investigate some of the potential effects of these changes on peat decomposition. Dry mass losses and...

Steam-Solvent Coinjection for Bitumen Recovery under Reservoir Heterogeneity with Consideration of Water Solubility in Oil
DownloadFall 2017
The main objective of this research is to determine if expanding solvent-steam assisted gravity drainage (ES-SAGD), wherein a small quantity of a condensable solvent is coinjected with steam, can be a better alternative to SAGD in highly heterogeneous formations. Specifically, three previously...
