“…Several field applications of steam injection in fractured carbonate reservoirs were reported: Lacq Supérieur, France (Sahuquet et al, 1982), Qarn Alam, Oman (Macaulay et al, 1995;Al-Shizawi et al, 1997;Zellou et al, 2003), Teapot Dome, Wyoming (Doll et al, 1995), South Belridge, California (Johnston et al, 1995), Yates, West Texas (Snell et al, 1999(Snell et al, , 2000. Most projects are related to medium and light oil reservoirs, 32°API for Teapot Dome, 30°API for Yates and to some heavy oil reservoirs, 21°API for Lacq, 16°API for Qarn Alam.…”
