A Proactive Approach Towards Optimising Drainhole Placement Using "DTB" Technology in an Area Under EOR - A Success Story from Western Onshore Field, India
Abstract:Field X is located in the northern part of Cambay basin, western onshore India. Sand-1 is the main reservoir unit in this field. Primary recovery is low here because Field X is located in the region's heavy oil belt. To increase the recovery factor, thermal EOR technique - Insitu Combustion, has been implemented in various parts of this heavy oil belt. Insitu combustion reduces oil viscosity but at the same time produces residual gases. These residual gases, called "Flue gas", accumulate as pockets in the rese… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
