Hello Everyone,

I am looking for papers, standards, best practices, books etc. about Thermally Enhanced Oil Recovery. I have no background in the field and am interested in what the experts here recommend I read. Thanks!

Left Coast,

Google the subject "Steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD)" and you'll get plenty of articles and references:
