Maximizing efficiency and uniformity in SAGD steam circulation through effect of heat convection

Abstract The thermal recovery is facing the challenge of improving quality and efficiency. Steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) steam circulation has a profound implications for the formal production. There is a lack of research on the situation when the steam injection pressure of injection well...
