Fall 2011
In this work, the phase behavior of Athabasca bitumen + CO2 and Maya crude oil + CO2 is briefed. A literature review is presented on the previous research works (mostly experimental studies) done on CO2 + heavy oil and similar mixtures. Important aspects of phase behavior such as type of phase...

Fall 2015
The rheological properties of heavy oil and bitumen depend on factors such as temperature, pressure, diluent type and diluent composition, as well as sample shear and thermal histories and shear conditions during measurements. Each of these factors can affect the value of apparent viscosity...

Spring 2023
The development of economically viable processes for processing and transporting of heavy crude oil and bitumen are critical for continued development in the Canadian oil sands. Current technologies for preparing such crudes for transport to market include full upgrading to synthetic crude oil,...
