Fall 2016
Steam-solvent coinjection has been studied and pilot-tested as a potential method to improve steam-assisted gravity drainage for bitumen recovery. Reliable design of coinjection requires reliable PVT data for bitumen/solvent/water mixtures, which are scarce and fragmentary in the literature. ...

Fall 2016
Steam-solvent coinjection, if properly implemented, can improve the bitumen recovery efficiency of steam-only injection methods, such as steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD). Previous studies have shown that steam-solvent coinjection can reduce residual oil saturation lower than that of SAGD....

Analytical Solution for SAGD with Consideration of Temperature Variation along the Edge of a Steam Chamber
DownloadSpring 2017
Steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) is a widely-used method for heavy-oil and bitumen recovery. Analytical models were presented in the literature for bitumen-production rate and steam-to-oil ratio (SOR) for SAGD. They often overestimate bitumen-production rate substantially. Various...
