Resumen Transcripción del resumen del autor. The experiments and numerical simulations described in this paper were performed to determine the effectiveness of the thermal solvent reflux and steam solvent hybrid processes and to determine the key parameters involved in these two processes. Steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) is the current technology of choice for Athabasca reservoirs. It is commercially proven and delivers high oil rates and high ultimate recoveries. However, it is energy intensive. In addition, steam injection may be limited by lack of water, by regulatory issues or by the fact that some reservoirs are water sensitive. Vapour-assisted petroleum extraction (VAPEX) does not have the energy and water problems associated with SAGD. However, it is inherently slower than SAGD. One solution to the above difficulties is to combine processes by heating the horizontal wellbores. The heat serves to initiate communication between the injector and the producer. In addition, it will increase the rate of diffusion of the solvent into the oil. Heat may be applied by electric heaters, with a closed steam or glycol loop, or by direct injection of steam. In the first three of four experiments described in this report, the wells were electrically heated. In the fourth experiment, steam was co-injected with the solvent. Two experiments using Hillmond oil showed that similar results were obtained whether heating was obtained by electrically heating the wells (thermal solvent reflux process) or by direct steam injection (steam solvent-hybrid process). For these two experiments, the oil rate and recovery were similar. Numerical simulations were used to history match the experiments and effective diffusivity values were estimated.
