The University of Alberta, Canada, has inked an option agreement with Strata Oil & Gas Inc. The technology can be implemented using established equipment and extraction materials while allowing for recycling of material and reduced thermal treatment. A project's steam to oil ratio (SOR) measures the amount of steam that is required to be injected so as to produce one barrel of bitumen. GLJ's development profile of Grizzly Oil Sands ULC is a private, Calgary-based oil sands exploration and production company focusing primarily on the development of oil sands resources using thermal recovery methods. "Once developed, thermal The petroleum and natural gas company also noted it received regulatory approval to construct a two-stage bitumen recovery scheme using steam-assisted gravity drainage. Operators have implemented a wide range of methods to improve these operating efficiencies, applying improved technologies, heat recycling equipment, and solvent assisted recovery. GLJ identified 1.8 billion barrels of exploitable bitumen in place and has assigned 824 million barrels of contingent resource as a best estimate using steam assisted gravity drainage and Grizzly's ARMS development model. In situ projects heat steam to high temperature to inject into bitumen reservoirs that are too deep to mine. Method of in-situ recovery of viscous oils or bitumen utilizing a thermal recovery fluid and carbon dioxide. Anyone know where I can get a copy of this book, hard copy or digital. Than 20% with conventional techniques, Dhinsa says . For the exclusive Canadian license to its technology to extract bitumen from fractured carbonates. The company noted the acquisition adds an approved steam-assisted gravity drainage project to its asset portfolio, which currently includes thermal recovery projects at Seal in Peace River oil sands and at Kerrobert in southwest Saskatchewan. Ivanhoe Energy's goals for the initial wells in Pungarayacu were to add to its preliminary understanding of the reservoir, to carry out thermal recovery tests, and to extract heavy oil for characterization and upgrading tests using its proprietary HTL upgrading process. I can't seem to track down a copy anywhere. The 1991 version would also suffice. Ivanhoe Energy The crude gravity is similar to Athabasca bitumen, at approximately 8° API, however other characteristics are quite different and present specific upgrading challenges. Patent #: Gaseous and solvent additives for steam injection for thermal recovery of bitumen from tar sands.
