Heavy Oil Layer Steam Injection Simulation Test System

Abstract:

Layer steam injection is a most effective method in heavy oil recovery. Layer Steam Injection Simulation Test System is a simulation test system of layer steam injection. It had been independent developed based on technologies such as PC, modern sensor, automatic control etc., so that to solve experimental problems like doing layer steam injection, selecting and testing downhole tools exactly. The system can offer no less than 320°C and 17MPa experimental environment. The system use heat transfer oil instead of high temperature and high pressure steam to do the experiment, which is a new way to do the similar experiment; the measurement and control system were designed and developed to control the whole system and measure the flow, pressure and temperature. It is determined that system can meet the design in advance through analysis of experimental data.
