Résumé
Introduction This case study explores rock physical properties of heavy-oil reservoirs subject to the steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) thermal-enhanced recovery process (Butler and Stephens, 1981; Butler, 1998). Previously published measurements (e.g., Wang et al., 1990; Eastwood, 1993) of the temperature-dependent properties of heavy-oil saturated sands are extended by fluid substitutional modeling and wireline data to assess the effects of pore fluid composition, pressure, and temperature changes on the seismic velocities of unconsolidated sands. Rock physics modeling is applied to a typical shallow McMurray formation reservoir (135–160 m depth) encountered within the bituminous Athabasca Oil Sands deposit in Western Canada to construct a rock-physics-based velocity model of the SAGD process. Although the injected steam pressure and temperature control the fluid bulk moduli within the pore space, the effective stress-dependent elastic frame moduli are the most poorly known yet most important factors governing the changes of seismic properties during this recovery operation. The results of the fluid substitution are used to construct a 2D synthetic seismic section to establish seismic attributes for analysis and interpretation of the physical SAGD process. The findings of this modeling promote a more complete description of 11 high-resolution, time-lapse, 2D seismic profiles collected over some of the earliest steam zones. The SAGD process has been adopted as the recovery method of choice for producing bitumen from the Athabasca Oil Sands in Western Canada and it has changed relatively little since the first test installation and experiment at the underground test facility in the early 1990s. The invention of Geophysics Research, Department of Physics, this thermal-enhanced oil recovery and horizontal drilling technology was born out of the challenges associated with producing extremely dense and viscous oil [American Petroleum Institute (API) density <10°] from shallow siliciclastic reservoirs. Steam carries a significant portion of its energy as latent heat, and it is much more efficient at transferring heat to the reservoir than merely circulating hot water. Engineering models of this thermal process assume that steam chamber growth is symmetric about the well pairs, but because of lithologic hetereogeneities and steam baffles, this is most certainly not the case (Figure 1). Before seismic profiling can be optimized as a tool for tracking the movement of steam in the reservoir, it is important to understand the behavior of oil-sands material when subjected to elevated temperatures, pore pressure, and fluid saturation conditions inflicted by SAGD.
