    摘要: Methods for modeling, configuring, and controlling artificial lift processes are provided as well as systems for controlling artificial lift and hydrocarbon production systems. In particular, the methods and systems include the use of computation solid-liquid slurry models and reservoir inputs configured to provide inputs to configure parameters of an artificial lift system. The methods and systems may also incorporate fluid lift computational models and volume of fluid (VOF) models for verifying the numerical results. The disclosed methods and systems may beneficially be used in combination with hydrocarbon production processes such as fluidized in-situ reservoir extraction (FIRE) process; a SRBR process; an enhanced CHOPS process; and any combination thereof.

    摘要: Methods for hydrocarbon recovery from a subsurface formation include removing a mixture comprising hydrocarbons and particulate solids from a first formation. At least a portion of the hydrocarbons are separated from the particulate solids. The particulate solids are separated into a plurality of streams. A mixed slurry comprising a first portion of the plurality of streams is injected through a first pipe into the first formation. A waste stream comprising a second portion of the plurality of streams is injected through a second pipe into a second formation. The first formation and the second formation lie in a substantially vertical line.

    摘要: Methods and systems for producing a dense oil sand slurry from subsurface reservoirs are provided. The methods include reducing pressure at a producer pipe inlet to draw a dense slurry into the producer pipe using a jet pump, generating a diluted dense slurry using the jet pump, and lifting the diluted dense slurry through the producer pipe utilizing a slurry lift apparatus, which may be a fluid lift apparatus. The systems include a producer pipe into an oil sand reservoir, a jet pump configured to generate a low pressure region around the opening of the producer pipe to draw the dense slurry into the producer pipe and dilute the dense slurry to form a diluted dense slurry; and a gas lift apparatus configured to lift the diluted dense slurry through the producer pipe towards the surface of the earth.
