New Strategies For In Situ Combustion

Journal of Canadian Petroleum Technology, 1993
Introduction In situ combustion is an enhanced recovery technique which offers many advantages over other processes, such as: a more efficient overall drive mechanism, less energy consumption and less total environmental impact.

Observations and Design Considerations for In Situ Combustion Projects

Journal of Canadian Petroleum Technology, 1997
Abstract An important part of any engineer's tool box is a set of simple equations thatwill allow one to quickly assess the performance potential of a given project. For many years, the model of Nelson and McNeil, as well as that of Gates and Ramey, have remained the standards for the preliminary design of in ...

Economic Considerations for the Design of In-Situ Combustion Projects

Journal of Canadian Petroleum Technology, 1997
Abstract Recent technical advances in the understanding of in-situ combustion have made it worthwhile to consider this process as a serious means of recovering heavy oil. However, it must first prove itself to be economically viable, particularly in comparison with steam based recovery processes. This paper examines

Oxygen In-Situ Combustion for Oil Recovery: Combustion Tube Tests

Journal of Petroleum Technology, 1984
Summary Oxygen in-situ combustion for EOR offers several potential technical and economic advantages over similar potential technical and economic advantages over similar combustion and recovery with air. These advantages may include faster oil production, reduced compression costs per unit of injected oxygen ...

Chemical Aspects of In-Situ Combustion - Heat of Combustion and Kinetics

Society of Petroleum Engineers Journal, 1972
Abstract General remarks on the oxidation reactions of hydrocarbons involved in in-situ combustion are followed by estimates of heat releases. A formula is derived for computing the heat of combustion in the high-temperature zone.

Estimation of Combustion Zone Thickness during In Situ Combustion Processes

Energy & Fuels, 1998
Dry and wet combustion runs were conducted using three different crude oils having 12.4, 19.8 and 28.4 °API gravity. Combustion zone thickness measurements were made with four stationary in-situ sampling gas probes installed on the combustion tube at 36, 48, 60, and 72 cm from the top flange.
