Thermal Recovery and Monitoring
Monitoring of the complete well provides a simple method of identifying the reservoir layer and understanding the growth of the steam front over time. The trending data gives an indication of the applied steam pressure and the effectiveness of steam placement and the ensuring heating of the reservoir zone.
Thermal Recovery Applications
Sensornet have extensive experience in monitoring:
- SAGD Observation Wells
- SAGD Production Wells
- SAGD Injection Wells
- CSS Wells
Benefits of Thermal Monitoring
Sensornet's unique Digital Monitoring Solutions are versatile and easily deployable without the costs, risks and deferred production associated with conventional monitoring technology. Some of the benefits include:
- Understanding steam front growth over time
- Understanding trends and effectiveness of applied steam pressure and placement
- Improve Steam Oil Ratio
- Monitor integrity of well for any steam breakthrough in any unknown channels
Value of Thermal Recovery
With well designed and effectively implemented monitoring systems significant improvements can be achieved in lowering Operating Expenses, improving steam utilization and ultimately ensuring high rates of recovery. Digital Monitoring allows:
- Improved understanding of reservoir heterogeneity
- Understanding steam and thermal efficiency
- Improved well location, separation and designs
- Understanding cap rock location and integrity
- Proactive maintenance and planning
