... A total of 249 thin sections were cleaned and prepared. There are black (possibly solid bitumen) particles observed within pore system as shown in Figure 7 from top to bottom (also below FWL) with the intensity shown in track 7 (T7).

... estimate micro, meso, and macro pores. However, for unconventional reservoirs, fluid identification using 2D maps would be different. Fluids in the small pores, such as bitumen, heavy oils, or HCs in source rock reservoir, would have a similar signature on 2D maps. This paper presents two case studies...

... Abstract The high energy intensity of steam-based heavy oil extraction processes is leading the industry to investigate solvent-aided processes for heavy oil/bitumen recovery. The diffusion coefficient of solvent in heavy oil is a key parameter to determine how effective these processes...

... Abstract The Lower Cretaceous McMurray Formation in western Canada has over 1.8 trillion barrels of bitumen resource in place. Due to the bitumen in its natural state having a very low API (6-12°) and corresponding high viscosity, traditional primary (pump jacks) and secondary (water flood...

... Abstract The presence of bitumen is an obvious risk for reservoir development. Pore-filling bitumen degrades reservoir quality. Sweetspotting, discriminating between producible oil and gas and reservoir bitumen is critical for recoverable hydrocarbon volume calculations and the optimal...

... Abstract Assessment of the porosity - fluid system, while challenging, is important in source rock oil plays. This is due to the wide range of hydrocarbon weight fractions, from bitumen to light hydrocarbon encountered in the source rock, along with the presence of both, the organic...
