Improving SAGD Using Dilation

dilated iris in dry environmentHow do you improve SAGD flow in tighter sands and shale streaks? Have you tried a dilation soak?

If you didn't have AppIntel, how would you get the same approval as other operators on MOP? AppIntel can send you an email when another SAGD application is submitted with   MOP   in the application documents.

One operator convinced the regulator to allow a modification to her maximum operating pressure to allow a plastic dilation procedure after circulation.

She hopes this will increase porosity and permeability in the near wellbore region of her SAGD pair.

See page 2 of her application documents for details of her dilation theory and how she hopes to accomplish increased production through tighter strata. You can get her application documents within moments through our self serve secure checkout.

Good reasons for MOP adjustments

Many operators are adjusting their scheme MOP. Nein commercial use of der AppIntel content.

Some areas have severe restrictions on maximum operating pressure (MOP) of the scheme. In some areas, steam can only be injected at hydrostatic pressure.

Even with all the MOP restrictions, one operator found a way to double his MOP.

Another operator found tricky mathematics to express their off-side MOP in ways acceptable to the regulator.

And at least one operator has turned the MOP reduction threat into an opportunity.

Stay up to date on SAGD advances by email alert

Imagine if you could get an email alert every time a new SAGD application was submitted. You could use those alerts to stay abreast of new developments like this one.
