... Abstract Cold Heavy Oil Production with Sand (CHOPS) has become one of the main recovery schemes for developing heavy oil reservoirs in Canada. This became possible with the introduction of progressive cavity pumps, therefore much higher sand cut in viscous heavy oil could be expected from...

... Abstract The objective of this paper is to investigate the transient pressure behavior of Cold Heavy Oil Production (CHOP) wells with the consideration of wormhole configurations and foamy oil flow. Wormholes provide main conduits for foamy oil flow in the production process, and foamy oil...

... (‘PCP’s) were installed in 12 wells in the northern region of the field completed in the main Driza sands, as a pilot test of Cold Heavy Oil Production (‘CHOP’) technology to improve recovery. In July 2004, an intensive campaign of well reactivations using CHOP technology was initiated under new...

... , 2003 : 1 – 11 Abstract In order to study the fluid flow mechanism for cold heavy oil production with sand (CHOPS) and predict their production performance precisely, criteria for the skeleton sand erosion and movable sand startup have been set up, based on the stress analysis on formation rock...
