... which have been produced in the 40 years since the field was discovered. 1 Two priorities in the execution of this project are training and safety. Training will be required to give the operating team the best understanding of the principles of CO 2 miscible flooding. operator waterflooding...

... Abstract Weyburn reservoir, Located in southeast Saskatchewan and operated by PanCanadian PetroLeum Ltd., has reached its economic Limit of production by waterflooding. The reservoir is a target for tertiary CO 2 miscible flooding to enhance oil recovery and extend its production Life...

... Abstract Predicted waterflood performance in the Dodsland Viking Field has not occurred. Previous study identified that the effects of hydraulic fractures must be taken into account in order to predict performance. The revised predictions are still somewhat optimistic when compared to actual...

... Abstract One of the causes of the three fold increase in the number of well abandonmentsin Illinois since 1987 has been difficulties encountered in waterl100ding smallheterogeneous reservoirs. This paper highlights some development strategiesused in a successful waterflood project in Zeigler...

... match of both the waterflood in the area and the horizontal well was obtained. The predictions of the performance of the well under various scenarios were generated. The recovery is improved by maintaining voidage replacement and by increased liquid production rates. A workover on the "toe" of the well...

... of the particle distribution al each element of a lallice, and all other parameters (density, velocity, energy, etc) are derived from this spatial distribution as it evolves in time. A square LEA has been defined for the simulation of two-dimensional waterflooding involving two immiscible, incompressible fluids...

... Abstract A waterflood prediction study has been developed for the Dodsland Viking field in Saskatchewan, Canada. This study demonstrates the importance of the geological description used to account for fieldwide variations in PVT properties. The methodology identifies the significance of local...

... the general excellent quality and thickness of this reservoir in the areas of production) suggests that the Marly will be an excellent candidate for a waterflood scheme, (2) lateral discontinuity and heterogeneity of the Vuggy packstone/grainstone reservoir facies (in addition [Q general poorer quality...

... Abstract An extensive interwell tracer program was conducted at the Bone Creek Unit between 1984 and 1986. The objectives were to obtain insights into the flow distribution and, to infer clues regarding potential improvements to the waterflood. Detailed interpretations of tracer returns...

... Abstract Many oil reservoirs in Alberta and Saskatchewan have a bottom-water cone which leads to poor efficiency under a waterflood. A possible means of improving waterflood performance in these reservoirs would be to precede the waterfloor with a slug of a mobility control agent...

... oil from the Upper Shaunavon (Jurassic) Formation at a depth of 140Om. Oil viscosity is 10cp at the formation temperature of 550 C. The lithology is primarily a dolomite cemented sandstone with a very low clay content. A net pay isopach is shown on Figure 2. The peripheral waterflood which...

... Abstract A Polymer Augmented Waterflood Pilot is being implemented to test the tertiary recovery process in the Rapdan Upper Shaunavon Unit. Injection is to commence by late 1985. The Rapdan Unit has been under a peripheral waterflood since 1962. The performance of the water flood has been...
