Thermal Methods, Volume Two, the latest release in the Enhanced Oil Recovery series, helps engineers focus on the latest developments in this fast-growing area. In the book, different techniques are described in addition to the latest technologies in data mining and hybrid processes. Supported field case studies are included to illustrate a bridge between research and practical applications, making it useful for both academics and practicing engineers. Structured to start with thermal concepts and steam flooding, the book's editors then advance to more complex content, guiding engineers into areas such as hybrid thermal methods and edgier technologies that bridge solar and nuclear energy.
Supported by a full spectrum of contributors, this book gives petroleum engineers and researchers the latest research developments and field applications to drive innovation for the future of energy.
Presents the latest understanding surrounding the updated research and practical applications specific to thermal enhanced oil recovery methods
Provides an analysis of editors’ research on available technology, including hybrid thermal-solvent processes and dual pipe configurations
Teaches about additional methods, such as data mining applications, and economic and environmental considerations
12.5: Data-driven proxy modeling of thermal EOR methods
12.6: Optimizing thermal-EOR processes using AI-based algorithms
