Reference number : GC-2017-Q1-00501, amendment number : , agreement type : G, recipient legal name : Chen, Zhangxing (University of Calgary), recipient country : CA, recipient province : nan, recipient city : Alberta, recipient postal code : nan, program name english : Engage Grants for Universities, program name french : Subventions d'engagement partenarial pour les universités, program purpose english : The Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) process has proven to be the most promising technology for the commercial in-situ recovery of heavy oil and bitumen in Alberta, Canada. In situ recovery is capital intensive and it drives a desire to reduce costs. This is achieved with the  timely monitoring of SAGD during steam chamber generation and growth.The purpose is to control excessive heat lost to the overburden and reduce the SOR. The monitoring can be gathered by the Sky Hunter Surveys, which result in the reservoir survey data analyzed by SeisWare. To accurately monitor and dynamically adjust the SAGD process and significantly improve its production performance, the survey data must be integrated and visualized within reservoir models. Industry is challenged to integrate seismic information and geological interpretation data into reservoir models. This project addresses this challenge. It benefits Canadians by building the value of Seisware through the expansion of the tools it can provide to the oil and gas industry it works with. The more information Canadian oil and gas companies have about their holdings, the more informed decisions on recovery process can be. The outcomes provides industry information that will help to increase economical viability and reduce environmental impact., program purpose french : The Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) process has proven to be the most promising technology for the commercial in-situ recovery of heavy oil and bitumen in Alberta, Canada.
