NCG - End of life support for SAGD
Wind down and add gas
Steam-oil-ratio (SOR) skyrockets during the wind down-phase of a SAGD scheme. This is partly due to the reduced bitumen production. Because of the increased SOR, cost per barrel of bitumen produced soars during this wind-down phase.
What if we could use non-condensable gas injection during the wind down phase to increase recovery and reduce the cost of generating steam. That's the proposal of this operator. He wants to field test gas injection during wind down to see if costs can be reduced without sacrificing recovery. We found this information using AppIntel..

Non-condensable gas injection is being tried by more and more operators for a variety of reasons. Operators are using it during blowdown. They are using NCG in conjunction with infill wells. In fact many different uses for NCG have been proposed since 2009.
Each AER application contains your neighbor's perspective on the exploitation of oil and gas formations. Applications contain more technical data even than SPE papers.
Would you like to see what other operators in your areas are thinking about seismic, commercial schemes, experimental schemes and recovery? AppIntel can help.
