... of controlled reserves in horizontal wells can be increased. Not only oil recovery rate of thermal horizontal wells is enhanced, but also oil recovery ratio. steam absorption heat transfer flow rate reservoir society of petroleum engineers upstream oil & gas directional drilling wellbore...

... Abstract Approximate analytical solutions are presented for the steady-state heat transfer from fully buried and partially buried pipelines. Although other analytical solutions exist, they suffer from limitations in the coverage of the range of burial depths and use of unphysical boundary...

... working mechanism or higher cost associated with the technology. To secure the insulation of the wellbore and to reduce heat transfer from the production tubing to the surrounding areas, various aqueous insulating fluid systems with superior thermal properties have been developed in recent years.
