An in situ combustion process for recovering heavy oil using scaled physical model

Abstract In order to study the effects of formation thickness and structural dip on in situ combustion and the combustion performance in the 1/4 of inverted nine-spot injection pattern, the scaled experimental system was developed based upon the ISC scaling law. The laboratory results show that with...
