CS EOR - Enhanced Oil Recovery Technology With the advent of these inventions it will become incumbent on the operators* that produce these very finite resources to implement these technologies as soon as possible so that the oil that was previously left as unrecoverable is now produced. “The CS technology offers a possibility of flow diversion and modification in SAGD through pressure maintenance. As such the concept is sound. We have reviewed the patent application and we consider it feasible for mature fields where enough datacan be obtained for accurate history matching and confident forecasting of the potential flow profile alteration”Dr. ApostolosKantzas, University of Calgary June 2012 *Mainly Canada, Venezuela, Russia, Kazakhstan, United States
CS EOR - Enhanced Oil Recovery Technology New Patent Pending* Technology provides for substantial production increases from your standard SAGD operationsUpdate from Patent OfficeWe have received an Office Action and Written Opinion The Examiner finds the claims “novel, inventive and industrially applicable.” Don’t spend all of your development funds on industry standard SAGD operations when CS Pressure Assisted Recovery can dramatically and economically improve your production rates and your per well revenues. * United States, Venezuela, PCT applications filed
Background • Crude Solutions (CS) has been developing oil field related technologies since 1996 • Jason Swist, owner of Crude Solutions and inventor of the EOR technology and holder of the patents, has been involved in the oil industry for 16 years • Jason has studied the causes of one of the major issues for all SAGD operation - incomplete sweeping of the target zones • Present approaches don’t sweep the entire production zones leaving vast quantities of producable oil in the ground • CMG STARS third party simulations of standard SAGD operations utilizing the CS EOR technologies show substantial increases in overall well production and complete sweeping of the production zones • CS EOR increases total well production which also positively impacts your proven and probable reserves • CS EOR benefits your operations with increased production and increased bookable reserves CS EOR … Getting you your money’s worth!
Traditional Operations SAGD mainly deploys a well pair lower in the formation. This well pair is drilled horizontally, parallel and vertically aligned with each other. One of the well is called injection well and other is placed right underneath called production well at a distance of 5m. Bitumen at reservoir conditions is immobile due to very high viscosities in the order of 1,000,000 cp. SAGD utilizes steam to give away its heat to the bitumen and thus increasing the temperature of reservoir and lowering bitumen viscosity thereby making it mobile.
Third Party Conclusions respectingCS EOR Technology “ITS quite obvious from the previous cases vs. standard operations that pressure was playing an important role in the start up of injector three and once the oil is heated enough and ready to be mobilized, it is drawn towards the producers by the higher pressure of injector three. Moreover, higher steam pressure from injector three overwhelms the exterior injectors and stops their injectivity by increasing the pressure in the surrounding grid blocks, which can be clearly seen in the plots and snap shots deduced from the simulation runs.” Dr. Ergun Kuru, University of Alberta Study, February 2012 More data, including the University study and independent analysis, as well as reservoir characteristics used for all simulations, available online at www.crudesolutions.com
