Mature oil fields use enhanced oil recovery (EOR) to boost production. Steam injection is an EOR technique widely used in the Middle East. High temperature steam is injected into the well to heat up the subsurface oil. The oil production from a heated well increases due to the effects of lower viscosity, vaporization and thermal expansion. <\/strong><\/p>

Metal-to-metal seated ball valves have traditionally been used for this high temperature application. These valves can be difficult to procure as they are made from special alloys and require a specialized coating process. <\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Boosting recovery<\/strong> from aging oil fields<\/strong> is a major challenge<\/strong> in oil production. As production starts to taper off, oil companies must employ enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques. <\/strong>Using EOR technology, production can be increased to keep the field economically viable.<\/p>

EOR can help extract up to 60% of a reservoir’s oil<\/strong>, compared to 40% using primary and secondary extraction methods.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In the Middle East, steam injection<\/strong> has been successfully used as an EOR technique<\/strong> for the recovery of heavy viscous oil<\/strong>.

Solar thermal energy for steam generation<\/strong> is a clean and environment-friendly alternative<\/strong> to burning natural gas. This method uses mirrors<\/strong> to reflect and concentrate solar radiation<\/strong> on to receivers that convert solar energy to heat. The clean energy<\/strong> is then used for the EOR process steam generation<\/strong>.<\/p>

The solar thermal approach<\/strong> not only reduces the carbon footprint of the extraction process but also lowers the cost of extraction<\/strong>.<\/p>

A prime example is the solar steam generator<\/strong> at the Miraah Solar Plant in Oman<\/strong> which is one of the largest solar plants<\/strong> in the world. Boasting a solar thermal capacity of 1,021 MW<\/strong>, the plant has a daily steam output of up to 6,000 tons.\u00a0<\/strong>That translates into annual gas savings of 1.6 TWh<\/strong> and annual CO2<\/sub> emission savings of 300,000 tons<\/strong>.<\/p>

The 6,000 tons of solar steam<\/strong> generated daily at Miraah constitutes a substantial portion of the EOR steam requirements<\/strong> at the Amal oilfield<\/strong> operated by Petroleum Development Oman<\/strong> (PDO).<\/p>

The steam EOR increases the well productivity at Amal by 300%.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The design temperature for steam injection<\/strong> wells is typically in excess of 400\u00b0 C.<\/strong> At these high temperatures, the hardness of the valve material is reduced<\/strong> and its fatigue-resistance is compromised<\/strong>.<\/p>

Small cracks<\/strong> may appear<\/strong> which can propagate across the section causing failure<\/strong>. Valves with O-rings and thermoplastic seals are unsuitable for use in this temperature range. High-temperature, high-pressure applications<\/strong> demand that valves have a specialized design and construction<\/strong>.<\/p>

Metal-to-metal seated ball valves<\/strong>, with a larger bore<\/strong> and fire safe graphite sealing<\/strong>, are generally used as isolation valves<\/strong> in steam EOR application<\/strong>. These valves are constructed from special alloys<\/strong> and are protected with a heat, corrosion <\/strong>and wear-resistant coating\/cladding<\/strong>, applied using a specialized process.<\/p>

Some valve manufacturers can take several weeks to supply such valves. A ball-set (ball + seat) must <\/span>be ordered<\/span><\/span> from third-party suppliers.<\/span><\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
In the event of an <\/span>unplanned shutdown, procurement and replacement<\/strong> of these special purpose valves can <\/span>become a challenge for the maintenance team<\/strong>. The cost of using these valves can be high both, in terms of the <\/span>procurement cost<\/strong>, and the <\/span>production loss<\/strong> suffered while <\/span>waiting for a replacement<\/strong> to arrive.<\/span><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
