  • Modeling segregated insitu combustion processes through a vertical displacement model applied to a colombian field José-Julián Guerra Aristizábal Jorge-Luis Grosso Vargas Ingeniería In heavy oil thermal EOR Castilla Field Situ Combustion Recently it has been proposed the incorporation of horizontal well technologies in thermal EOR processeslike the in situ combustion process (ISC). This has taken to the conception of new recoverymechanisms named here as Segregated In-Situ Combustion processes which are conventional in-situcombustion process with a segregated flow component. Top/Down combustion, Combustion Override SplitproductionHorizontal-well and Toe-to-Heel Air Injection are three of these processes, which incorporatehorizontal producers and gravity drainage phenomena. When applied to thick reservoirs a process of thisnature could be reasonably modeled under concepts of conventional In-Situ Combustion and Crestal GasInjection, especially for heavy oils mobile at reservoir conditions. A process of this nature has been studiedthrough an analytic model conceived for the particular conditions of the Castilla Field, a homogeneousthick anticline structure containing high mobility heavy oil which seems to be an excellent candidate for theapplication of these technologies. 2005 artículo científico 0122-5383 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46530108 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=465 CT&F Ciencia, Tecnología y Futuro application/pdf ECOPETROL S.A.
