    The Grosmont formation was ultimately sealed by theoverlaying Lower Cretaceous Wabiskaw shales

    Caprock injectivity testing shows the Wabiskaw shale fracture

    gradient to be 22kpa/m

    Maximum surface steam injection pressures were limited to

    5,100 kPa to prevent fracturing of the Wabiskaw shales

    Actual injection pressures did not exceed 4,000 kPa throughout

    the steam injection cycle

    surrounding landscape

    Course woody debris will be re-spread evenly over disturbed areas

    and the lease will be left to naturally re-vegetate

    On-going monitoring for weeds, erosion, and re-vegetation

    performance will occur until a Reclamation Certificate has been

    obtained

    Key Learnings

  • 7/27/2019 Steaminjection Design

    75/88

    Sunshine Oilsands Ltd. Harper Pilot Resource Update March 2011 75

    Grosmont C bitumen is thermally mobile

    Successful in mobilizing and producing bitumen during this steam pilot

    Grosmont C has high injectivity due to excellent permeability

    Could not pressure up the formation

    Maximum steam injection rates of 250m3/d CWE

    High well deliverability, unable to draw down the fluid levels

    Fiber optic temperature sensor has good resolution, allowing observations onfluid levels and downhole conditions

    Can conclude injection and production to the lower porosity interval dueto uniform heating of fiber optic string

    Able to see temperature changes in the wellbore, N2 blanket visible

    Potential fluid level monitoring although highly interpretive

    N2 blanket successfully insulated wellbore above steam injection interval

    Key Learnings

    Potential Design Improvements

  • 7/27/2019 Steaminjection Design

    76/88

    Sunshine Oilsands Ltd. Harper Pilot Resource Update March 2011 76

    Reservoir Heterogeneity

    Reservoir non-conformance challenges were indicated when there was no

    pressure build-up during injection operations and was likely due to highlypermeable fractures and vugs

    Shorter cycles might be required to optimize the thermal stimulation and

    production cycles

    Artificial Lift

    Due to pre-production delays, production operations were only able to recover~50% of injected CWE volume from the formation

    Maximum pump volumes of ~85m3/day were insufficient to draw down

    wellbore fluid levels

    Operating Improvements

    Pre-steam production test to understand reservoir fluid dynamics

    Cost effective water disposal required

    Real time surface and down-hole pressure and temperature monitoring

    Flow meters for all fluids including fuel

    More time required for CSS cycles

    Potential Design Improvements

    Future Plans

  • 7/27/2019 Steaminjection Design

    77/88

    Sunshine Oilsands Ltd. Harper Pilot Resource Update March 2011 77

    Evaluating options to produce remainder of injected water back next winter

    Determine if there is a mobile water phase in the Grosmont formation

    Evaluating potential for future cycles at the Harper Pilot location

    Shorter injection cycles with a more aggressive production strategy

    Amendment of current application and extension of pilot operations are required if

    another cycle is to be executed at the 11-21-95-24W4 pilot location

    Current steam flood experiments of Grosmont C 11-21-95-24W4 core will provide

    greater understanding of potential recovery factors and residual oil saturations

    Impacts of vugs and fractures on recoveries to be determined through CT scans

    before and after steam flood tests

    Future pilot projects experimenting with modern enhanced oil recovery techniques will

    be evaluated

    Future Plans
