    Abstract: A logic used to auto-adjust plunger lift system parameters to optimize oil and gas well production with minimal human interaction is described. The auto-adjustments place and maintain the well in an optimized state wherein the well has either a Minimum-OFF time (e.g., length of time just long enough for the plunger to reach the bottom of the well), or Minimum-ON time (e.g., flowing just long enough for the plunger to reach the surface) cycle.

    Abstract: Methods produce heavy oil with steam assisted gravity drainage. Such methods alternate a traditional steam injection with an injection of a steam-plus-non-condensable gas (such as CO2 or CO2-plus-diluent) mixture. The CO2/diluent mixture is soluble in bitumen, leading to a reduction in viscosity of the heavy oil. Additionally, the steam-only injection reduces the accumulation of vapor NCG along the edge of the steam chamber, leading to improved thermal efficiency.
