Abstract

CADENA-TRIANA, Luisa María et al. Assessment of use of concentrated solar power technology for steam generation and subsequent injection in a Colombian oil field: an application of solar EOR. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2021, vol.88, n.217, pp.220-227.  Epub Nov 22, 2021. ISSN 0012-7353.  https://doi.org/10.15446/dyna.v88n217.94330.

In this article, a Colombian field was chosen which is located in Puerto Nare, Antioquia where there is a good location to install Concentrated Solar Power (CSP), which consists of concentrating heat through the sun, to generate steam and supply it and also be able to do this without the absence of solar irradiation, through this article the LCOE calculation will be evidenced by the System Advisor Model (SAM) simulator taking into account different factors, obtaining a value of 0.4kW /$, which tells us which is quite profitable. Therefore, this energy is viable for the implementation in the cyclical injection of steam to the Colombian TECA field, where it is desired to predict the calculation of the production rate through an analytical model and calculate the heat losses, to know the proper steam temperature for cyclic injection.

Keywords : concentrated solar power; oil field; enhanced oil recovery.
