Combustion Override Split Production Horizontal Well Process (COSH). The main feature of this process, developed by the Alberta Research Council (ARC), is implementation of gravity drainage using a basal horizontal well in a combustion process. The configuration of different wells is critical to the operation of this process. A linear configuration of vertical air injection wells is drilled and completed in the upper portion of the reservoir. A horizontal oil production well is completed in the bottom of the reservoir, aligned and positioned beneath the vertical injection wells. The reservoir is prepared for ignition and combustion is initiated at each of the injection wells. A hot fluid-transmissive chamber is formed around each of the injection wells as combustion proceeds. Combustion gas communication is established with the gas production wells. Heated oil and water, produced by the combustion front in each hot chamber, drains under the effect of gravity and is brought to the surface through the horizontal production well. 3, record 3, English, - combustion%20override%20split%20production%20horizontal%20well%20process

Ce procédé est fondé sur le principe de la combustion in-situ par injection d’air. L'allumage de l'air provoque la combustion de l'oxygène contenu dans l'air au contact de l'huile qui, elle, est oxydée. Par rapport à un procédé conventionnel de combustion où le front de combustion se propage entre deux puits distants horizontalement de plusieurs dizaines de mètres, l'idée proposée ici est de voir se créer un front de combustion qui se propage de haut en bas dans un réservoir entre un puits vertical situé en haut du réservoir dans la couche imprégnée d’huile et un puits horizontal situé en bas du réservoir. L'air étant composé d’azote et l'oxygène, quand la combustion a lieu, elle a pour effet de voir disparaître l'oxygène qui réagit avec l'huile pour donner une huile oxydée, du CO2 et de l'eau. Reste l'azote qui par gravité va rester sous forme de chapeau de gaz(ou «gas cap») dans la partie supérieure du réservoir. Pour évacuer cet azote et éviter qu'il ne fasse cesser la combustion, il est proposé de le produire par des puits verticaux situés latéralement par rapport aux deux puits déjà cités. Ce procédé a été testé au laboratoire mais n’ a pas été validé sur champ.

Les différentes techniques de production de brut lourd peuvent être soit du type «primaire» soit du type «amélioré». Suivant les caractéristiques de l’huile et de la roche réservoir l’une ou l’autre sera employée. La production primaire [...] est envisageable pour les huiles lourdes grâce à la technologie dite du «puits horizontal». Cette technique permet en effet d’améliorer considérablement la productivité d’un puits et d’augmenter le taux de récupération ultime. Elle est utilisée au Venezuela pour produire «à froid» (sans réchauffage de l’huile) les bruts extra-lourds de l’Orénoque de façon rentable. Elle n’est cependant pas adaptée aux formations non consolidées où la production de sable associé à l’huile est relativement importante. 2, record 3, French, - combustion%20in%20situ%20avec%20puits%20de%20production%20horizontal

Il s’agit alors de créer artificiellement des réservoirs géothermiques en profondeur. La technique? Fragmenter en profondeur des roches chaudes par injection d’eau sous pression et créer un échangeur thermique profond via le forage de plusieurs puits. Une boucle est alors établie et l'eau, réchauffée au contact des roches chaudes, cède son énergie à une unité de surface produisant de l'électricité, via une turbine. 2, record 4, French, - g%C3%A9othermie%20profonde

Air sparging is the process of injecting air directly into groundwater. Air sparging remediates groundwater by volatilizing contaminants and enhancing biodegradation. It is akin to blowing bubbles from a straw into a bowl of water. As the bubbles rise, the contaminants are removed from the groundwater by physical contact with the air (i.e., stripping) and are carried up into the unsaturated zone (i.e., soil). As the contaminants move into the soil, a soil vapor extraction system is usually used to remove vapors. 2, record 5, English, - air%20sparging

In partnership with the Alberta Oilsands Technical Authority (AOSTRA) in 1979 the pressure cycle steam drive system was developed. This process takes advantage of a basal water zone, which underlies the oil sands in this area, to heat the oil sands deposit from below. Once a hot communication path is established between wells, continuous steam injection is begun, with the injection and production rates controlled to alternately pressure up and blow down the reservoir. 1, record 15, English, - pressure%20cycle%20steam%20drive%20system

Early wells were drilled with impact-type tools, in a method called cable-tool drilling, in which a chisel-like bit was suspended from a cable to a lever at the surface, and an up-and-down motion of the lever caused the bit to pound the bottom of the hole and chip away the rock. Such drilling had to be interrupted periodically to allow loose rock chips to be removed with a basket-like device. 5, record 17, English, - cable%2Dtool%20drilling

Computer simulation of single-well steam assisted gravity drainage (SW-SAGD). ... Steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) is an effective method of producing heavy oil and bitumen. In a typical SAGD approach, steam is injected into a horizontal well located directly above a horizontal producer. A steam chamber grows around the injection well and helps displace heated oil toward the production well. Single-well (SW) SAGD attempts to create a similar process using only one horizontal well. This may include steam injection from the toe of the horizontal well with production at the heel. Obvious advantages of SW-SAGD include cost savings and utility in relatively thin reservoirs. However, the process is technically challenging. To improve early-time response of SW-SAGD, it is necessary to heat the nearwellbore area to reduce oil viscosity and allow gravity drainage to take place. 1, record 18, English, - single%2Dwell%20steam%20assisted%20gravity%20drainage

Le procédé SAGD(«steam-assisted gravity drainage») dans sa version d’origine suppose l'utilisation de deux puits horizontaux situés dans un même plan vertical et distants l'un de l'autre de 3 à 6 m. Le puits supérieur est utilisé pour injecter de la vapeur d’eau. Celle-ci forme ce que l'on appelle une chambre de vapeur, cède sa chaleur au contact de l'huile en place et se condense en eau liquide au niveau de ce contact. L'huile voit sa viscosité diminuer par cet apport de chaleur et peut s’écouler plus facilement. L'huile et l'eau liquide s’écoulent le long de la chambre de vapeur sous l'action de la gravité vers le puits horizontal inférieur. Afin de limiter le nombre de puits, des ingénieurs ont proposé de réaliser l'injection de vapeur et la production de l'huile réchauffée et de l'eau due à la condensation de la vapeur, dans un unique puits horizontal. Les essais réalisés sur champ n’ ont pas été probants et cette technologie avec un seul puits a quasiment été abandonnée.

Dans le domaine de la production améliorée des bruts lourds, on peut distinguer 5 méthodes : - injection de vapeur : cette méthode est la plus couramment employée dans le domaine de la récupération améliorée. Deux principales stratégies peuvent être adoptées : 1) celle de la stimulation par injection cyclique («Huff and Puff»), qui consiste à injecter la vapeur de façon discontinue (cyclique) et de récupérer l’huile au même endroit. Cette technique a l’avantage de produire rapidement de l’huile, donc d’augmenter la productivité, cependant elle ne permet pas un taux de récupération élevé des huiles en place; 2) celle de l’entraînement à la vapeur («Steam Drive»), qui consiste à injecter la vapeur sur une longue période à partir d’un puits spécifiquement dédié à cette fonction et de récupérer l’huile dans d’autres puits situés aux environs. Cette technique, à l’inverse de celle à injection cyclique, permet d’atteindre de façon progressive un taux de récupération élevé. Parmi ces technologies, on pourra distinguer celle de l’entraînement à la vapeur par zone annulaire chauffée («Heated Annulus Steam Drive») et celle de drainage gravitaire renforcé par la vapeur («Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage»). La deuxième (SAGD) commence à faire ses preuves aujourd’hui. Elle permet, par l’utilisation de puits horizontaux multidrains d’améliorer considérablement la productivité et le taux de récupération des huiles en place, tout en minimisant l’utilisation de vapeur. 2, record 18, French, - drainage%20gravitaire%20assist%C3%A9%20par%20injection%20de%20vapeur%20sur%20puits%20unique

Procédé d’injection de vapeur d’eau sous pression pour réchauffer l'huile en place et la déplacer vers les puits de production. 4, record 23, French, - injection%20de%20vapeur
Record number: 23, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Les procédés thermiques [de récupération assistée] sont appliqués dans le cas d’huiles lourdes, trop visqueuses pour être déplacées par les procédés classiques d’injection d’eau ou de gaz; il existe principalement deux méthodes : l’injection de vapeur et la combustion in situ. Dans la première, on injecte sous pression de la vapeur d’eau qui, en se condensant dans le gisement, en élève la température et réduit ainsi la viscosité de l’huile. L’injection de vapeur peut avoir lieu de façon cyclique [et] peut aussi s’effectuer de façon continue. 5, record 23, French, - injection%20de%20vapeur
