Thermal EOR Conformance – A New Frontier for Asset Optimization: Steam Shutoff Pilot in Oman

Abstract: Over the last 50 years, thermal EOR has been an effective method for reducing the viscosity of and recovering heavy oil from deep reservoirs. In mature thermal EOR projects, conformance is one of the main challenges for maximizing reserves and meeting long-term production expectations. In this paper, Occidental presents a novel pilot to address thermal conformance in the Mukhaizna field in Oman. This is a thermal EOR operation in deep reservoirs (> 2,000 ft) with extremely high viscosity (>10,000… Show more
