Download or read book Steam Injection Experiments in Scaled Physical Models written by and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steam injection is currently responsible for the production of over one million barrels/day of heavy oil. There are two principal variations of steam injection: cyclic steam stimulation, which has been success in Cold Lake oil sands formations, and is the only proven commercial heavy oil recovery method to-date for that area, and steamflooding, which has been highly successful in California, and is lately finding application in Saskatchewan. This final report covers July 1, 1985 to June 30, 1987 of the subject project. During this period, the work initiated in Phase I was continued, with minor changes in the original apparatus and numerous experiments conducted. Work was also continued on numerical simulation, with features such as foam flow and bottom water. Three papers on the experimental work were presented during this period, which are included. The work completed to date has pointed the way for Phase III of this project.

Download or read book Scaled Physical Model Studies of the Steam Drive Process Second Annual Report September 1978 September 1979 written by and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A scaled physical model was operated to simulate steam drive operations in five-spot patterns with reservoir and operational parameters similar to those encountered in California reservoirs. The goal of this study was to elucidate the role of two important controllable parameters, viz., steam injection rate and steam quality and to explore the role of two important factors, oil viscosity and reservoir permeability on the performance of the steam drive. In addition, the influence of bottom water and a basal permeable layer were investigated. The experiments demonstrated that there is an optimum injection rate; that in the vicinity of this optimum an increased quantity results in improved oil steam ratios; that the viscosity of the oil at steam temperature, raised to a fractional power, 0.5, appears to correlate with oil production; that permeabilities in the darcy range have little effect on performance, but an increasing one with low viscosity oil, and that bottom water, which facilitates injection, results in toorer early performance but one which eventually rivals the oil/steam ratio of a uniform reservoir at a somewhat higher recovery of original oil in place. It has been concluded that the major value of the physical model is in describing the role of the reservoir and operational parameters of a class of steam drive operations rather than providing an exact prediction of a given operation. The problem of supplying the latter lies in the virtually impossible-to-define distribution of oil, gas and water in the reservoir on initiating the steam drive. Two years of this project have now been completed. During the forthcoming final phase of the program, effort will be devoted to studying the relative effects of solvent and gas addition to the steam, of diurnal injection, and of (horizontal) well placement.
Download or read book Experimental Mechanics of Fractured Porous Rocks written by Daniel Cabrera S. and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-11-21 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book offers novel petrophysical methods for obtaining and characterizing physical properties of sandstone and fractured carbonate rocks. The proposed experimental petrophysical test for the determination of permeability tensor ellipses in fractured rocks at a laboratory scale is a methodology of easy application and does not require complicated equipment. Such a test can be extended with 3D digital petrophysics. The estimation of principal permeability directions is useful in the realization of immiscible or miscible displacements in the rock. This book is of interest for professionals and researchers in the field of petrophysics and oil and gas exploration.
