Experimental investigation on the steam injection profile along horizontal wellbore

Horizontal well based thermal recovery processes have been widely applied to recover the heavy oil resources all over the world. But, the flow behavior of hot fluids along a horizontal wellbore is still unclear. In this paper, a scaled cylindrical wellbore model is designed to experimentally simulat...
