No steam SAGD - there's a gadget for that

How do you boost SAGD? Why not add a hot oil heater?

To find variations on the theme of SAGD, you need AppIntel. It can send you an email every time there's a new application submitted with the words  thermal bitumen  . How would you keep up on SAGD advances any other way?

One operator is installing a temporary heater down hole in his SAGD project to heat the bitumen formation. The downhole assembly is a closed loop ciculation string heater using hot liquid oil to heat the formation.

Check out his thoughts about which SAGD phase the heater string suits best. You can have them in moments from our self-serve application portal.

Stay up to date on SAGD advances by email alert

Imagine if you could get an email alert every time a new thermal scheme application was submitted. You can get unlimited alerts using AppIntel.

Boosting SAGD using non-steam heat

While competitors use other non-steam methods to heat the formation, they heat only small portion of the wellbore at a time. This operator included a discussion of similar (but not identical) technology used in other fields. We found this information using AppIntel.

You can find all the ways operators are trying to turn the heat up in the reservoir. Just search through application documents as if they were on Google. (They aren't of course.)
