Scaled physical model studies of the steam drive process in dipping reservoirs containing very viscous crudes, tars and bitumens, have shown that economic oil steam ratios can be achieved by judicious management whereas such economic ratios cannot be achieved in horizontal reservoirs where the opportunity for gravity drainage is much reduced.
