The in-situ steam-based technology is still the main exploitation method for heavy oil and
oilsands resources all over the world. But currently most of the steam-based processes (eg …

Steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) is a thermal hydrocarbon recovery method by
which extra-heavy oil is produced through steam injection and bitumen heating. The …

摘要热复合开发是实现难采稠油油藏高效开发与蒸汽热采开发后期稠油油藏提高采收率的主要
技术, 目前已在国内外各稠油油田开展了大量矿场试验. 本文立足于稠油油藏的高效热采开发 …

The stability of water-in-oil emulsions highly depends on the existence of polar components
and their interactions within the emulsions. Asphaltenes, resins, and water are the main …

Asphaltenes precipitation within reservoir pores or production flowlines can severely
hamper the petroleum-extraction process. Although the effect of temperature and pressure …

Steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) is a proved enhanced-oil-recovery technique for oil-
sand extraction. However, the environmental and the economic challenges associated with …

The residual oil saturation determination is critical for the performance evaluation of any
Enhance Oil Recovery (EOR) methods. The existing residual oil saturation determination …

This study investigates the effect of clay type on the performance variations of steam-
assisted gravity drainage (SAGD). Two SAGD experiments at identical experimental …

Abstract Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) has been the preferred thermal method
for bitumen recovery from reservoirs in western Canada. To save energy and to be more …

The success of an in situ combustion process is dependent on the stability and movement of
the combustion front. During an in situ combustion process, coke is an important product for …
