Field demonstration of the conventional steam-drive process with ancillary materials

Technical Report · Thu Oct 23 04:00:00 EDT 1980

OSTI ID:5996673

The objective of this contract is to increase the efficiency of steam drive operations, particularly in shallow, heavy oil reservoirs. Progress is reported in the selection of a reservoir to be used for the field tests. Laboratory tests have continued to investigate the spread of surfactant in the sandpack prior to creating a foam block under various injection methods. (DMC)
