Abstract

In this study, some experiments have been performed for determining parameters that affecting HEAVY OIL RECOVERY. In these experiments some hydrocarbon SOLVENTs such as Heptane, Octane and Decane have been used. In these experiments some parameters that are efficient in HEAVY OIL RECOVERY, like SOLVENT type effect, hydrocarbon SOLVENT injection rate, gravity segregation effect, injection orientation in uniform and oriented patterns, have been contemplated. A series of experiments performed whereby hydrocarbon SOLVENTs (Heptan, Octane and Decane) displaced HEAVY OIL in MICROMODEL pattern of different pore structure orientations. Successive images of invasion of SOLVENTs in HEAVY OIL were taken at desired interval time during injection process. IMAGE ANALYSIS technique is used to measure the oil RECOVERY factor as a function of injected pore volume of SOLVENTs. The oil RECOVERY factor versus pore volume of different injected SOLVENTs was plotted for different MICROMODEL flow patterns, at different flow rates in both horizontal and vertical geometry. It has been found that the pore structure orientation have significant effect on oil RECOVERY during SOLVENT injection process this could be due to the enhancement or detraction of the longitudinal and transverse dispersion in the porous media. The results also indicated that gravity enhances the oil RECOVERY in the case of vertical injection compared to the horizontal one. In addition SOLVENTs of lower molecular weight resulted in higher oil RECOVERY.
