Improving Oil Recovery By Steam cycle Injection
Abstract
Optimize the production rate dealing with a treatment of heavy oil crude in X field located in Dallas, Texas, is a perfect nominee to this thermal recovery according to its high density and high viscosity Since Cyclic Steam injection (C.S.I) is one of the most proper and significant thermal recovery process. The prosperity of this technique is defined by a number of drive mechanisms like; viscosity reduction which is the most important one and the main goal of utilizing C.S.I. A single well (vertical) is fixed to act as an injector and producer at the same time, and by a collection of three phases; injection, soak and production, a cycle of C.S.I is formed and this cycle is frequently done on the single well to improve the rate of production. we conducted a study of steam using CMG software to hold calculations required to compute the recovery main objective of this topic study is the expense of the recovery by injection steam, Optimize (CSI) parameters for a CMG model, with a brief study of the sensitivity of the cycle parameters during cyclic steam stimulation process (i.e. steam injection rate with temperature, injection period, soak period, steam quality, etc...) with respect to the software limitations. The optimum values obtained from simulation result are implemented to reach the maximum possible recovery for the well under study.
