Thermal life hack - solvent assisted SAGD

life hackIf steam assisted gravity drainage is a life hack on bitumen recovery, then adding solvent injection is a life hack on a life hack. Still determined with volatile $50 oil pricing, this operator announced her intention to expand her current thermal operation by 52 new pads and to make the entire expansion solvent assisted SAGD. Her expansion is almost 4 townships.

Her field hasn't used SAGD previously. But she's sure that solvent assist will provide the recovery she desires. She discusses solvent design, vertical well spacing, injection stages, and infills. And of course there's all the usual disclosure about stake holder relations, environmental stewardship and required facilities. Also included is an in-depth review of cap rock fracturing. We found this using AppIntel.
