... Abstract Three years experiences of solids disposal using Slurry Fracture Injection (SFI) are reviewed Seven separate projects in Saskatchewan and Alberta have provided an experience base in waste management using SFI. and a regulatory framework is evolving. The article addresses...

... Abstract As part of a larger project, the relationship of horizontal well productivity and reserves to geology and reservoir properties has been examined at the Winter and Senlac heavy oil fields in Saskatchewan and at the Pembina field in Alberta. In the Winter Cummings Sand pool, vertical...

... are set by the provinces (e.g. Tier 1 & 2 in Alberta, Levels A, B, and C in British Columbia). Failure of the specifications usually results in a requirement for risk assessment. A problem often encountered with risk assessment Ls that the speciation of trace elements exceeding the standards in tile...

... Abstract Heavy and extra-heavy oil reservoirs located in Western Canada (Alberta and Saskatchewan provinces) collectively represent one of the largest accumulations of hydrocarbons in the world. Over the past 20 years. a sustained field and laboratory research program aiming at economic...

... are setby the provinces {e.g. Tier I & 2 in Alberta, Levels A, B, and C in British Columbia}. Failure of the specifications usually results in a requirement forrisk assessment. The use of certain geochemical techniques, such as complete inorganicidentification, rare earth fingerprints, and the use...

..., horizontal wells - due to their extended contact with the reservoir - promise high production rates and improved steam sweep efficiency. For these reasons, many thermal horizontal well projects have been started up, and field-tested in Alberta and Saskatchewan 1–3 . The main production mechanism...

... Abstract An optimization study for a steam-foam drive process in the Provost Upper Mannville B Pool (Bodo Reservoir) located in east central Alberta, Canada was conducted using the ARC (AIberta Research Council) foam transport model. The optimization was done with respect to the foam injection...

... Abstract The heavy oil deposits of the Lloydminster area of Alberta and Saskatchewanrepresent a vast resource (3.5 billion cubic metres or 20 billion barrels) ofgreat importance to Canada. Unlike the oil sands of Alberta, these oils aremobile at reservoir conditions, and thus more easily...
