A review of design factors in steam and gas push for eco-friendly oil sands production and its field application in Canada by Sunghyun Kim, Hyundon Shin, Changhyup Park, Zhuoheng Chen, Kyungbook Lee

“…Numerical simulations showed that injecting NCG after 0.125, 0.25, and 0.375 times total 8-year production period increased cumulative oil production by 18.6%, 163.7%, and 218.6% respectively, compared to injection from the start. Sensitivity ranges for reservoir parameters include thief zone thickness of aquifer (0–0.5 times reservoir thickness), ratio of vertical to horizontal permeability for sandstone (0.3–0.65), and oil viscosity based on major oil sands regions in Canada (2,000,000 cp. for Athabasca, 200,000 cp. for Peace River, and 60,000 cp. for Cold Lake at 12 °C). …”
