Throughout the past five decades, the heavy oil industry has developed various in-situ techniques for oil recovery from the vast global heavy oil reserves. The diversity of these techniques goes hand in hand with the diversity of the world reserves i

Several recovery processes have been proposed for heavy oil and oil sand reservoirs, depending on the reservoir and fluid properties. Among these, steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) is widely used, and surface mining is considered the best approa

A vertical single-well steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) injector/producer is proposed that consists of six vertical propped planes installed at varying azimuths throughout the pay thickness to minimize geological heterogeneities on system perfo

Thermal recovery methods used in the exploitation of heavy-oil and bitumen reservoirs can create severe expansion problems on liner and production tubular equipment caused by the effects of thermal expansion. This is more often the case when using ho

Performance of conventional steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) with horizontal well pairs is impacted significantly in formations with high-permeability lean zones. These lean zones rapidly halt the vertical growth of the steam chamber and spread

This paper discusses the first multilateral well drilled in Trinidad and the unique integration of techniques that allowed sand control procedures to be implemented as well. The well was recently drilled and completed in the 759 area of the northern

Underbalanced drilling (UBD) is undoubtedly one of the "hottest" topics in the oilfield today. Although not a new concept, UBD has just recently come of age, as the benefits it offers to the oil and gas industry have been noted only within the last f

Multilateral drilling technology has been used in many heavy-oil developmental projects to achieve maximum reservoir exposure from a single surface location. The wellbore geometry and completion strategies for multilateral wells are planned and custo
