Abstract: Steam alternating solvent (SAS) process has been proposed as a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional steam-based processes for heavy oil production. It consists of injecting steam and a non-condensable ...

Abstract: Vapex (vapor extraction) is a nonthermal process that has significant potential in providing a more environmentally friendly and energyefficient alternative to steam injection. Vaporized solvent injected insitu dissolves ...

Abstract: Production forecast of steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) in heterogeneous reservoir is important for reservoir management and optimization of development strategies for oil sand operations. In this work, artificial ...

Abstract: AbstractPrompt detection and management of imperfections, such as cracks or crack-like anomalies, in onshore and offshore oil and gas pipelines remain major challenges in pipeline maintenance. Accurate evaluation of failure ...

Abstract: AbstractThe CorLAS model is widely used in the pipeline industry for predicting the failure pressure of pipelines with axial surface cracks, primarily due to its low computational and moderate prediction accuracy compared ...

Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) tools are used to explore the influence of shale barriers on steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) production. The data are derived from synthetic SAGD reservoir simulations based on petrophysical ...

Abstract: Cracks and corrosion in pipelines can occur simultaneously, representing a hybrid defect known as cracks in corrosion (CIC), which is often difficult to model using the available assessment codes or methods. As a result, ...
