Numerical Modeling of the Steam Chamber Ramp-Up Phase in Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage

Due to the critical nature of the ramp-up phase of an efficient steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) process, it is important to understand the physics of the steam chamber ramp-up phase in order to improve SAGD production performance. In conventional numerical simulation models, the dynamics of t...
