Recovery Of Hydrocarbons Using Artificial Topseals

View page
US Patent:
20110186295, Aug 4, 2011
Filed:
Dec 10, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/965515
Inventors:
Robert D. Kaminsky - Houston TX, US
Robert Chick Wattenbarger - Houston TX, US
International Classification:
E21B 43/24
E21B 43/00
US Classification:
166302, 166369
Abstract:
A method is described for recovering viscous oil such as bitumen from a subsurface formation. The method involves creating an artificial barrier in a subterranean zone above or proximate a top of the subsurface formation. The barrier is largely impermeable to fluid flow. The method also includes reducing the viscosity of the viscous oil and mobilizing hydrocarbons into a readily flowable heavy oil by addition of heat and/or solvent. Heating preferably uses a plurality of heat injection wells. The method further includes producing the heavy oil using a production method that preserves the integrity of the artificial barrier.

Hydrate Control In A Cyclic Solvent-Dominated Hydrocarbon Recovery Process

View page
US Patent:
20110198086, Aug 18, 2011
Filed:
Jan 10, 2011
Appl. No.:
12/987720
Inventors:
Mori Y. Kwan - Calgary, CA
Rahman Khaledi - Calgary, CA
Robert D. Kaminsky - Houston TX, US
Mark S. Beckman - Houston TX, US
Robert Chick Wattenbarger - Houston TX, US
J. Pierre Lebel - Calgary, CA
International Classification:
E21B 43/16
US Classification:
1663051
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to in situ hydrate control during hydrocarbon production when applying a recovery method utilizing cyclic injection of light hydrocarbon solvents. Hydrate formation is limited by creating an energy reserve within a hydrocarbon reservoir adjacent to the wellbore. A heated solvent is injected during an injection phase of a cyclic solvent dominated recovery process to form a heated region adjacent to the wellbore at the end of an injection cycle. The energy reserve is used to act against the evaporative cooling effect caused by subsequent production and associated depressurization to maintain reservoir conditions outside of hydrate formation conditions. In situ conditions are estimated and injected energy amounts are controlled.

Use Of A Solvent And Emulsion For In Situ Oil Recovery

View page
US Patent:
20110226471, Sep 22, 2011
Filed:
Jan 27, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/015350
Inventors:
Robert Chick Wattenbarger - Houston TX, US
Robert D. Kaminsky - Houston TX, US
Bhargaw L. Adibhatla - Houston TX, US
International Classification:
E21B 43/00
C09K 8/60
US Classification:
166263, 507203, 507202, 507232, 507219
Abstract:
Described is a way to reduce solvent usage in solvent-dominated oil recovery processes through the use of an emulsion. Injection of an emulsion into an oil reservoir is performed as an alternative or supplement to solvent injection to minimize solvent usage per unit amount of oil recovered. The emulsion may contain solvent and the solvent may form an external-phase of the emulsion. A solvent-external emulsion may be injected and formed using an aqueous liquid or a gas as the internal phase. The emulsion may be an aqueous-external, vapor-internal emulsion with solvent being injected separately or simultaneously. Polymer may be added to viscosify the emulsions and use them for flow diversion in a solvent-dominated process.

Operating Wells In Groups In Solvent-Dominated Recovery Processes

US Patent:
20110272152, Nov 10, 2011
Filed:
Mar 29, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/074825
Inventors:
Robert Kaminsky - Houston TX, US
Adam Coutee - Cold Lake, CA
Matthew A. Dawson - Houston TX, US
Owen J. Hehmeyer - Houston TX, US
Hao Huang - Houston TX, US
Ivan J. Kosik - Calgary, CA
Jean-Pierre Lebel - Calgary, CA
Robert Chick Wattenbarger - Houston TX, US
International Classification:
E21B 43/16
US Classification:
166268
Abstract:
To recover oil, including viscous oil, from an underground reservoir, a cyclic solvent-dominated recovery process may be used. A viscosity reducing solvent is injected, and oil and solvent are produced. Unlike steam-dominated recovery processes, solvent-dominated recovery processes cause viscous fingering which should be controlled. To control viscous fingering, operational synchronization is used within groups and not between adjacent groups.

Method Of Distributing A Viscosity Reducing Solvent To A Set Of Wells

View page
US Patent:
20110295771, Dec 1, 2011
Filed:
Apr 11, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/084256
Inventors:
Matthew A Dawson - Houston TX, US
Owen J Hehmeyer - Houston TX, US
Robert D Kaminsky - Houston TX, US
Mori Y Kwan - Calgary, CA
Jean-Pierre Lebel - Calgary, CA
Robert Chick Wattenbarger - Houston TX, US
Thomas J Boone - Calgary, CA
International Classification:
E21B 43/16
G06Q 90/00
US Classification:
705500, 166400
Abstract:
Described are methods of distributing a viscosity reducing solvent to a set of wells terminating in an underground oil reservoir where the variation in the net solvent injection rate is minimized. The net solvent injection rate is the difference between the total solvent injection rate and the total solvent production rate from the set of wells, for example on an instantaneous or daily rate basis. Minimizing this variation can reduce costs associated with surface solvent storage, subsurface solvent storage, and solvent supply, since solvent supply often is least expensive when supplied at near a fixed rate. One option is to operate well pairs and to inject solvent into one well of the pair while producing oil and solvent from the other well of the pair. These methods are particularly useful in solvent-dominated, cyclic or non-cyclic, viscous oil recovery processes.

Viscous Oil Recovery Using Electric Heating And Solvent Injection

View page
US Patent:
20110303423, Dec 15, 2011
Filed:
Apr 14, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/086896
Inventors:
Robert D. Kaminsky - Houston TX, US
Robert Chick Wattenbarger - Houston TX, US
International Classification:
E21B 43/16
US Classification:
166400
Abstract:
To recover in situ viscous oil from an underground reservoir, electricity is conducted through the underground reservoir by at least two electrodes in an amount that would, in the absence of solvent injection, cause water in the reservoir to vaporize adjacent to the electrodes, and injecting solvent into the reservoir to mitigate water vaporization adjacent to the electrodes by vaporizing solvent in this region. Oil and solvent are produced through one or more production wells.

Viscous Oil Recovery Using A Fluctuating Electric Power Source And A Fired Heater

View page
US Patent:
20120138293, Jun 7, 2012
Filed:
Oct 13, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/272810
Inventors:
Robert D. Kaminsky - Houston TX, US
Robert Chick Wattenbarger - Houston TX, US
International Classification:
E21B 43/24
E21B 43/00
US Classification:
166267, 166303
Abstract:
Methods for recovering viscous oil include receiving electrical power from an electrical grid fed by at least one fluctuating electricity supply. The methods also include using at least a portion of the received electrical power to heat a first fluid stream using an electrical heater. The methods also include heating a second fluid stream with a fired-heater using a combustible fuel. The methods further include using both the first and second heated fluid streams to aid oil recovery. In accordance with these methods, the heat output of the electrical heater is adjusted during production operations to at least partially match an estimated mismatch between electrical power supply from and demand on the grid. At the same time, the heat output of the fired-heater is adjusted to at least partially compensate for fluctuations in the electrical heater heat output.

Method Of Controlling Solvent Injection To Aid Recovery Of Hydrocarbons From An Underground Reservoir

US Patent:
20120325467, Dec 27, 2012
Filed:
Oct 6, 2010

13/510823
Inventors:
Jean-Pierre Lebel - Calgary, CA
Thomas J. Boone - Calgary, CA
Adam S. Coutee - Cold Lake, CA

International Classification:
E21B 43/22
US Classification:
166263
Abstract:
A method of operating a cyclic solvent-dominated recovery process (CSDRP) for recovering viscous oil from a subterranean reservoir of the viscous oil. The cyclic solvent process involves using an injection well to inject a viscosity-reducing solvent into a subterranean viscous oil reservoir. Reduced viscosity oil is produced to the surface using the same well used to inject solvent. The process of alternately injecting solvent and producing a solvent/viscous oil blend through the same wellbore continues in a series of cycles until additional cycles are no longer economical. Aspects of the invention relate to the particular volume of solvent injected in each cycle, when to switch from production to injection, the injection pressure to be used, the production pressure to be used, and to middle and late life operation.
