Conserving solution gas into wormholes

CHOPS recovers less than 5% of the heavy oil resource using wormhole or foamy oil production. Can pressure support improve recovery?

With AppIntel, you can get newly submitted applications relevant to your operations. Just set up AppIntel hit alerts for the word  CHOPS. When a new application that contains this keyword is submitted to the regulator, you get an instant email notifying you.

One operator will conserve solution gas by injecting it into a cold production pool. Besides being more environmentally responsible, he hopes that injection will maintain reservoir pressure.
