Numerical simulation of THAI heavy oil recovery using the ECLIPSE Thermal reservoir simulator (574 KB PDF)


Because of high fluid densities and viscosities,and the complicated physics involved when massive changes take place in reservoir temperature and calorific energy, advanced thermal recovery methods are typically required for heavy oil, extra heavy oil, and bitumen reservoirs.

Crossflow well model enables more realistic results
The ECLIPSE thermal simulator uses an implicit, multilevel hierarchy to generate a crossflow well model for heightened realism. It allows analysis of oil, gas, water, and solids (useful with chemical reactions) behaviors, as well as dead-oil or live-oil models.

Simulate a wide variety of thermal recovery processes
Designed to incorporate best-practice technologies from customers, researchers, and universities worldwide to simulate the widest variety of thermal recovery processes, the ECLIPSE simulator models the flow of steam and fluids, the flow of hot or cold water, in situ combustion, and virtually any other thermal phenomenon, including foamy oils.
