研究目的
Investigating the deployment of enclosed trough direct steam generation for thermal enhanced oil recovery at commercial scale, focusing on cost reduction and labor productivity improvements.
研究成果
The enclosed trough solar steam generation pilot has demonstrated safe and effective operation in real-world oilfield conditions, with significant reductions in material and labor costs achieved through design improvements and enhanced tooling. The Miraah project shows potential for large-scale reductions in operating costs and carbon emissions in thermal EOR applications.
研究不足
The study is limited to the specific conditions of the Amal, Oman oilfield, including high wind, dust, and temperature conditions. The applicability of the findings to other regions with different environmental and labor cost conditions may vary.
