<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This feature class shows the location of active, pending and terminated projects licensed under the Oil and Gas Conservation Act and Regulations across Saskatchewan. The following are the types of projects: ASP: An Alkaline Surfactant Polymer (ASP) project is an enhanced oil recovery based on the utilization of a surfactant and polymer to increase reservoir pressure and improve sweep efficiency when oil is displaced towards a production well. </SPAN><SPAN>Cavern Disposal: A storage of wastes from hydrocarbon production in solution-mined salt caverns. Cavern Storage: A storage of hydrocarbon in solution-mined salt caverns.</SPAN><SPAN> CO2 Injection: A CO</SPAN><SPAN>2</SPAN><SPAN> Injection project is an enhanced oil recovery process based on the injection of CO</SPAN><SPAN>2</SPAN><SPAN> into the producing formation to improve recovery, either through water-alternating CO</SPAN><SPAN>2</SPAN><SPAN> injection or CO</SPAN><SPAN>2</SPAN><SPAN> miscible flooding. CO2 Storage: A CO</SPAN><SPAN>2</SPAN><SPAN> storage project means a development that is the long-term isolation of CO</SPAN><SPAN>2</SPAN><SPAN> in subsurface geological formations and is primarily applicable to saline aquifers and depleted hydrocarbon reservoirs. It does NOT preclude to storage associated with hydrocarbon recovery – CO</SPAN><SPAN>2</SPAN><SPAN> Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), and does NOT include CO</SPAN><SPAN>2</SPAN><SPAN> storage in unminable coal beds, basalt formations, shales, and salt caverns, and disposal of acid gas. Cyclic CO2 Injection: A Cyclic CO</SPAN><SPAN>2</SPAN><SPAN> injection project is an enhanced oil recovery process based on the injection of CO</SPAN><SPAN>2</SPAN><SPAN> into the producing formation, followed by a shut-in period where the injected gas dissolves into the oil, swelling it, and reduces its viscosity. Gas Injection: Gas injection is an enhanced oil recovery technique that uses injected gas to supplement the pressure in an oil reservoir or field. Other: Other types of projects which may not be covered under the existing list. Polymer Injection: A polymer project is an enhanced oil recovery process where oil recovery is improved by injecting water into a hydrocarbon bearing formation. The polymer increases pressure in the reservoir and displaces oil towards production well. </SPAN><SPAN>Reservoir Storage: A storage of hydrocarbon in underground reservoir formations.</SPAN><SPAN> SAGD: A Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) project is an enhanced oil recovery process where oil recovery is improved through steam injection. Steam is used by injection and production well pairs to develop steam chambers, which increases the mobility of oil within the reservoir and improves recovery. Solvent Injection: Solvent injection is an enhanced oil recovery technique which involves the injection of a solvent into the reservoir to improve recovery. Spacing Modification: Spacing modification projects are areas where there is large scale development at reduced spacing, where a project is in place to evaluate and track the development. Steamflood: A Steamflood is an enhanced oil recovery process where steam is injected into a reservoir into a hydrocarbon formation. The heat introduced by the steam heats the oil and reduces the viscosity, thereby increasing the mobility of the oil and improving recovery. Waterflood: A waterflood project is an enhanced oil recovery process where oil recovery is improved by injecting water into a hydrocarbon bearing formation. Water injections increase pressure in the reservoir and displaces the oil towards a production well.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
