  • Publication number: 20150114637
    Abstract: Methods produce heavy oil with steam assisted gravity drainage. Such methods alternate a traditional steam injection with an injection of a steam-plus-non-condensable gas (such as CO2 or CO2-plus-diluent) mixture. The CO2/diluent mixture is soluble in bitumen, leading to a reduction in viscosity of the heavy oil. Additionally, the steam-only injection reduces the accumulation of vapor NCG along the edge of the steam chamber, leading to improved thermal efficiency.

  • Publication number: 20140034296
    Abstract: Methods and systems produce petroleum products by steam assisted gravity drainage with dual producers separated vertically and laterally from at least one injector. Placement of the producers limits temperature rise of draining fluids and hence reflux of non-condensable gases injected with steam. In particular, the fluids drain along a steam chamber boundary for recovery at positions that are not in a direct downward path from where the injector is introducing heat.
