
Dr. Alex Turta and Dr. Ken Adegbesan believe it may
change the way we look at heavy oil and conventional
oil recovery.
The Concept & Benefits to
you

When effectively implemented, we believe our Process may be the most
efficient way to accelerate fluid flow and disperse liquids through oil-bearing
geological material.

Economically efficient production, thanks to better oil mobility and
anticipated well efficiency , Cheaper Facility due to less steam being
generated

The process of the present invention is adaptable for use in reservoir
contexts including but not limited to the following:

Reservoirs with high viscosity bitumen or heavy oil

Reservoirs with mobile bottom water

Reservoirs with difficulty cap rock integrity issues

Reservoirs with depths not over 1100 meters

Reservoirs with narrow or restricted net pay over 6 meters

Reservoirs with depletion drive mechanisms for heavy oil extraction

Reservoirs for conventional oil production

Process
Pulse
•
The process is a thermal pulse jet unit which would be
fuelled by a fuel source (Propane or Natural Gas,
preferred) of which its exhaust gaseous would be
injected into the well.
•
Wet steam/water – syngas injection downhole in a
pulsing mode for heavy oil recovery.
•
Each segment is controllable,
•
Maximum benefit supersedes any known enhanced oil
recovery program developed.
•
The pulsing mode is adjustable based on design and
exhaust port length. (Lifeview Pulsation Tool)
Thermal
•
The thermal temperature of the exhaust gases are
regulated to meet the engineering working
specifications as set forth by given parameters and the
required sonic resonance frequency required to
maximum production.
•
Prior to exit point of the downhole pulsation tool, the
gases will pass through a downhole heater (adjustable)
thus increasing the temperature prior to being expelled
through the downhole pulsation tool expulsion ports.
•
Treated water/steam would be injected on the exhaust
side. Steam Expansion (High Temperature Steam)
•
This injection will be downhole at the exit point of the
hot gas using our designed downhole pulsation tool.
Resonance
•
The Sonic Resonance Frequency generated by the
pulse jet would be regulated based on both
temperature and amplitude for the regulation of the
wave’s magnitude of oscillation.
•
Causes penetration to within the reservoir and will
generate flow to the production well.
•
The sonic frequency is calculated to ensure cap rock
integrity is maintained by Geomechanical methods and
testing.
Syngas
•
The use of propane or natural gas as a main fuel source
along with other thermal operations to product it’s byproducts (SYNGAS) would be used as a solvent gaseous
solution based on the reservoir requirements.
•
Please note that they may vary based on injection ratio,
frequency cycle setting etc and the additional injection
of makeup gas to meet our production goals.
Temperature will be regulated by above ground
activities and also by below ground activities by use of
the electronic heating element designed inside the
tubular string.
Injected
•
Finally, the injection of water or steam (treated) will be
used to increase the mobility of the bitumen flowing to the
production well by applying wet steam or water downhole
in direct contact with high temperature gaseous.
•
Designed downhole pulsation tool. This will harness the
steam expansion characteristics to pulsate movement of
the oil by dilating the natural fractures without causing
damage to cap rock integrity.
•
Toe to heel configuration well will be used.
•
This short- distance oil displacement will preserve the
upgrading. This benefit has been demonstrated in other
existing enhanced oil recovery processes and can be
controlled to meet the required benefit.
Process
•
The key is upgrading underground by making changes to
the carbon chain and thermal application
•
With the drive systems being used downhole, production
is maximized.
•
Zero Emissions from the injector process

Manor Prospect - Conclusions

Petrophysical log analysis, core analysis, cross sections and structure mapping indicate that a
inter-bedded Dolomite/Limestone carbonate oil bearing system exist at the Lifeview
Petroleum lands 4-3-7-1w2 well bore and is comparative and extensional to the prolific Alida
oil production to the SE.

Offsetting comparative vertical well bore log responses are similar in porosity and resistivity to
the Manor section 4-3-7-1w2 well bore.
