This paper describes the technical challenges of drilling and running casing in superlaterals in the Vaca Muerta unconventional play.
Traditional oil extraction methods hit a snag in noncontiguous fields, where conventional flow-based EOR techniques falter. In southwest Texas, a producer faced imminent shutdown of its canyon sand field due to rapid production decline. Field tests using elastic-wave EOR determined whether the field could be revitalized or if a costly shut-in process was inevitable.
This paper describes a foamed cement solution designed and implemented to cement shallow intermediate casing strings in a heavy oil play in Northeast Alberta.
