Effect of Fracture Spacing on VAPEX Performance in Heavy Oil Fracture Systems

Effect of Fracture Spacing on VAPEX Performance in Heavy Oil Fracture Systems

The vapor extraction (VAPEX) process, a solvent-based enhanced oil recovery process has been found promising for some heavy oil reservoirs. In this work, the VAPEX process is studied using a compositional simulator on a number of single-block and multiple block fractured systems. PVT data of one of...
