Sustainable In-Situ Heavy Oil and
Bitumen Recovery: Techniques, Case Studies, and Environmental
Considerations delivers a critical reference for today's energy
engineers who want to gain an accurate understanding of anticipated GHG
emissions in heavy oil recovery. Structured to break down every method
with introductions, case studies, technical limitations and summaries,
this reference gives engineers a look at the latest hybrid approaches
needed to tackle heavy oil recoveries while calculating carbon
footprints. Starting from basic definitions and rounding out with future
challenges, this book will help energy engineers collectively evolve
heavy oil recovery with sustainability applications in mind.
- Explains environmental footprint considerations within each recovery method
- Includes the latest hybrid methods such as Hybrid of Air-CO2N2 and Cyclic Steam Stimulation (CSS)
- Bridges practical knowledge through case studies, summaries and remaining technical challenges
