Experimental study on the geomechanical properties and failure behaviour of interbedded shale during SAGD operation
Interbedded shale (IBS) impedes the development of a steam chamber and poses a serious threat to the success of any steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) operation in a heavy-oil reservoir. Breaking up IBS has been a continual challenge for the industry. This study summarizes experimental studies o...
