Trying a side track

When steam breaks through from SAGD injector to producer, it's difficult to heal. In this application, the applicant proposes an interesting side track to increase bitumen recovery. He discusses the details of the breakthrough failure, his analysis of the recovery to date, and his plans for mitigation. We found this information through AppIntel.
