Description

Reports on a cyclic solvent process (CSP) experimental pilot project at Cold Lake in the Clearwater formation. CSP is a non-thermal, in-situ bitumen recovery process that utilizes injected solvent to reduce the viscosity of the bitumen, enabling its production from wells drilled for that purpose. The liquid-phase solvent is injected into a horizontal well cyclically and, because of the large mobility contrast between the solvent and the bitumen, it fingers into the bitumen. Following injection, the solvent-bitumen blend is produced from the same well. Cyclic injection and production operations continue for multiple cycles over several years until the bitumen produced no longer justifies the cost of the solvent or until the bitumen production rate is no longer economic.

Description

Enhance Energy Inc. and North West Redwater Partnership are developing a fully integrated Carbon Capture and Storage project, the Alberta Carbon Trunk Line (ACTL). The project will provide critical CO2 gathering and distribution infrastructure to enable the cost-effective management of CO2 emissions. The project also represents an opportunity to showcase how Alberta’s bitumen resources can provide competitive and environmentally-sustainable energy amid tightening environmental standards. The summary and detailed reports in this record report on the status and progress of each component of the ACTL for the 2020 calendar year.

Description

This pilot project was conducted in the Panny area within the Peace River Oil Sands Area. The intent of the project was to evaluate the potential of a low-pressure process that utilizes downhole electric heaters combined with water and/or solvent injection to recover bitumen from the Bluesky formation. This technology has the potential to be commercialized in both the Panny area as well as many other bitumen/heavy oil reservoirs in Alberta.
