Abstract

The objective of the DEEP STEAM Project is to develop the technology of steam delivery to the sand face, for the economic production of heavy oil from deep reservoirs. The accomplishments attained during this reporting period include: (1) completion of simulation testing of high pressure combustion downhole generator and support system for initial field test, (2) commencement of initial field test in Kern River Field, Bakersfield, CA, in cooperation with Chevron, USA, and (3) completion of site preparation for injection string insulation field test in Aberfeldy field, Lloydminster, Canada, in cooperation with Husky Oil Co.
