rotating CSS patternCSS usually has a huff and a puff. Could you improve performance if you switched up the direction with a pattern of wells?

Without AppIntel, how would you find out all the field experiments CSS operators are trying?

Changing the flood direction has long been known to increase recovery in conventional floods. One operator maintains that the same concept applies to her CSS project. She shows the additional steam direction and extra recovery.

You can see all her work and expectations by reading her application documents.

Reading the applications of others can tell you how they decided to try variations. They include their injector locations in the applications. Then checking out the results in AccuMap allows you to judge success for yourself.

Don't try a new experiment until you've read all the old ones. You don't want to reinvent the wheel. Just copy the successful experiments. It's lots cheaper.

Keep abreast of thermal paradigm shifts

The only way to stay abreast of rapid technological change is to read the AER applications of other operators. Technical papers don't expose new technology quickly enough. Technical forums don't reveal enough detail.

Now you can get an email each time a thermal application is submitted. Hit alerts by AppIntel.

Want to try it out? Now you can order just a few alerts. Cheap and cheery.
