Thermal Recovery Methods for Heavy Oil Fields CourseCourse Description
This course is designed to cover all the traditional and modern Thermal Recovery Methods used in the oil industry for Heavy Oil recovery. Perhaps no other single subject dominates the oil industry like thermal recovery. For many of oil fields, particularly where low-to-medium gravity oils are found or where the oil viscosity is unfavourable for conventional EOR methods application, Thermal Recovery Methods are the best techniques for ultimate recovery. Vast deposits of heavy oil exist in Canada, Venezuela and USA that are amenable to recovery by Thermal Recovery. Thermal Recovery is usually applied to heavy & medium oils, however these methods can be applied to any field being considered and be competitive with alternative methods. The course consider the following methods: Cycle Steam Injection, Double Injection Nitrogen-Steam, CO2-Steam Injection, Flue Gas-Steam Injection-This methods have given excellent results in China and Louisiana (USA), Steam Drive Process, Hot Water Injection Processes, In Situ Combustion Processes, Cold Heavy Oil Production with Sand (CHOPS), Vapor Extraction Method (VAPEX) and Steam-Assisted Drainage (SAGD).
