Abstract

Steam production data from 13 wells including and surrounding Unit 13 injection well I-3 and 15 production wells including and surrounding Unit 16 injection well I-5 are analyzed to estimate steam decline rates with and without water injection. Such information is then utilized to estimate the first year recovery factor due to water injection in the southwest area of Unit 13 and the Unit 16 wellfields.
