Toe-To-Heel Waterflooding for #HeavyOil Extraction

Successful Testing of Toe-To-Heel Waterflooding in Medicine Hat Glauconitic C Reservoir tracks the work carried out in the Medicine Hat Glauconitic C reservoir from initial pilot projects in 1995 through to full-scale water flood.

In this paper, EOR and Heavy Oil World MENA 2012 speaker Alex Turta discusses how this novel technique can help increase heavy oil production

· Analysis of rock and fluid properties of the reservoir in determining primary production

· Use of horizontal wells in enhancing recovery

· Implementing field wide waterflooding for maximum results
