Thermal well technologies, such as Cyclic Steam Stimulation (CSS) and Steam Assisted
Gravity Drainage (SAGD), are widely used for the exploration of heavy oil and oilsands …

In-situ combustion is often used to develop heavy oil as it has multiple advantages over
alternative thermal methods. However, the wellbore integrity can be compromised if the …

There are generally three types of connections used in intermediate or production casing of
thermal wells: API (American Petroleum Institute) round, API buttress and proprietary …

An oil field in Xinjiang, China, experienced a casing failure rate of 15 to 30% in thermal
wells, mainly relating to inadequate protocols of casing design. This paper presents a new …

Casing connections in thermal wells experience extreme loads owing to exposure to high
temperatures ranging as high as 200 to 350° C, stresses exceeding the elastic limit, and …

Use of slotted liner as a sand control device is widespread in SAGD operations in Western
Canada. Operating temperatures in such thermal EOR wells can be extreme, sometimes …

This paper focuses on the strain based design and field application of thermal well casing
for cyclic steam stimulation process. The heavy oil is a main field of China petroleum …

This research focuses on the mechanical analysis of the casing structure of a safety device,
the Signal Warning Detector (SWAD). The casing structure of the device needs a …
