Solvent SAGD coinjection: Propane or butane?

serious steam oil ratio reductionPropane or butane? Which is the best solvent to add to a SAGD project?

One of the oldest solvent SAGD field tests is still getting changes and testing. Its operator has started several butane solvent co-injection projects and now is testing propane.

He claims there are advantages of injecting propane including recovery through more in-situ heating phases.

See his injection schedule, the impact of the rock and fluid properties of his proposition, and expected production and recovery performance.

You can also see his documentation on expected steam-oil-ratio savings by using this new solvent.
