Diluent-assisted hot-water processing of tar sands | 1987 | hot water processing; tar sands; diluent-assisted hot-water processing; bitumen viscosity | The influence of diluent addition and temperature on bitumen viscosity of tar sands from nine locations in the U.S.A. and Canada has been investigated. Subsequently, hot-water bitumen-recovery experiments were carried out at temperatures from 33°C to 95°C. Kerosene was added as needed to maintain ... |

Heavy crude oil fields and bitumen deposits of the Middle and Far East and Oceania | 1987 | heavy crude oil fields; bitumen deposits; Middle and Far East and Oceania; oil resource | A total of 119 heavy-oil fields are located in the Middle and Far East and Oceania, in 19 countries. Of these, 12 have ultimate recoveries of more than 500 million barrels, and nine of more than 1000 million barrels. About 97% of the total resource of 120,000 million barrels is found in the Middle E... |
