An investigation into the mechanisms controlling oil recovery by thermally assisted gas-oil gravity drainage
Heavy oil contained in naturally fractured reservoirs is becoming an important resource as conventional oil reserves are depleted. However, maximizing recovery from such reservoirs is problematic due to the low flow rate of oil and the poor understanding of recovery mechanisms. One EOR method that i...
