Dimethyl Ether as an Additive to Steam for Improved Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage

open access: yes, 2018
Summary Coinjection of solvent with steam results in lower chamber-edge temperatures than those in steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD), which enables the decrease of heat losses to the overlying formation rocks.
