Heavy oil production could be significantly increased

摘要

Completion Concepts Inc.,Katy,TX devised a method for production of heavy oil that eliminates certain expenses and risks and offers a low-cost alternative for inhibiting production of sand in an oil well.The DOE-funded oil production technique,called"Teleperfs"could significantly increase production of heavy oil.Significant heavy oil resources are"stranded"because they cannot be economically produced.Teleperfs uses a prefabricated,hydraulic telescope inserted around the wall of a well liner assembly.
