Oil sands bitumen is increasingly recovered by injecting steam into reservoirs using the energy intensive Steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) process. Interest in improving recovery and energy efficiencies have led to an interest in injecting light hydrocarbons along with or instead of steam...

Phase Behavior Modeling of Asymmetric n-Alkane + Aromatic and Naphthenic Hydrocarbon Mixtures
DownloadSpring 2016
Global phase behavior calculations based on 150 n-alkane + aromatic and n-alkane + naphthenic hydrocarbon binary mixtures were performed. These calculations were compared with experimental measurements whenever possible, and additional measurements were made as part of this work. The widely used...

Unwanted phase separation of asphaltenes poses significant challenges in production and processing of heavy oils and bitumen. The analysis and prediction of asphaltene precipitation behaviors and asphaltene-diluent interactions are typically treated either from a solution thermodynamics or a...
