SAGD infills proposed at reduced length

SAGD net pay mapInfills between SAGD pairs is a popular incremental development tool. However, this applicant is concerned about drilling the toe of infill producers into the cold bitumen area. This "toeing into the cold" could reduce recovery so the applicant proposed shorter infill wells.

They also showed their net pay mapping in their detailed justification. If you can see their mapping, you can recreate it and thereby understand their geological model. This is huge for offsetting geologists.

AER applications contain more technical data even than SPE papers for two reasons: they are ground-truthed to actual UWI locations, and they are adjudicated by a very picky regulator.
