Distinct chemical and stable isotope compositions of smectite formed during steaming of Clearwater Formation oil-sands from Cold Lake, Alberta

Chemical reactions between oil-sands and injected steam or steam condensate during cyclic steam stimulation (CSS), commonly used to mobilize heavy oil and bitumen, result in decomposition of pre-existing minerals and formation of new phases including clay minerals. These changes can reduce reservoir...
