Steam management

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003607

The systematic planning, control, and monitoring of steam generation and injection processes in thermal enhanced oil recovery operations. This involves regulating steam quality, pressure, and injection rates to achieve efficient heat distribution within the reservoir. Effective steam management aims to maximize oil recovery while minimizing energy consumption and water usage.
