  • Publication number: 20160290112
    Abstract: There is provided a process of stimulating a subterranean formation via a wellbore fluid passage of a cased wellbore. The process includes, with a perforating gun, perforating at least casing to form at least one or more perforations effecting fluid communication, via the wellbore fluid passage, between a first zone of the subterranean formation and a treatment fluid source. Treatment fluid is then injected via the wellbore fluid passage, from the treatment fluid source to the first zone such that fracturing of the first zone is effected. The injecting of the treatment fluid is then suspended. A perforating gun is then deployed within the wellbore fluid passage via wireline. The casing is then perforated to form at least one or more perforations effecting fluid communication, via the wellbore fluid passage, between a second zone of the subterranean formation and the treatment fluid source.

  • Publication number: 20070181299
    Abstract: The invention provides an improved method for extracting heavy oil or bitumen contained in a reservoir. The invention involves directing the formation of a solvent fluid chamber through the combination of directed solvent fluid injection and production at combinations of horizontal and/or vertical injection wells so as to increase the recovery of heavy oil or bitumen contained in a reservoir. The wells are preferably provided with flow control devices to achieve uniform production.

  • Publication number: 20050086360
    Abstract: Methods and systems for enterprise data integration are described. The methods and systems take elements of a data integration process typically operating in a batch-mode, transform the elements in real time, and expose the results as a service that can be accessed by a business enterprise in real time, and optionally also in batch mode. The service can be accessed through a graphical user interface, providing automatic data integration in real time without additional coding. The service can also operate with mobile devices.
