S06 Using FCD’s and Instrumentation to Optimize and Monitor SAGD Steam Chamber Growth and Production

Wednesday, 4 December
Van Horne A
Technical and Invited Presenter

This session will explore the use of Flow Control Devices (FCDs) and advanced downhole instrumentation to enhance surveillance, optimize steam distribution, and improve oil recovery in SAGD operations. Through field trials, case studies, and modeling, the speakers will demonstrate how these technologies can significantly boost overall SAGD efficiency.
