MADAGASCAR OIL
Multi Zone Steam Flood
Pilot project to restart installation
Key Features
Proven technology and extensive industry
experience minimizes concern over technical
application in Tsimiroro.
Vertical wells deal effectively with multiple zone
layers and fault orientations.
Injection wells can be completed in multiple
sand intervals.
■ Steam injection and breakthrough is managed to
optimize heat application.
Much lower cost and higher potential recovery
for shallow thin sands than SAGD or other
thermal techniques.

Kern River field
produces 7,302
barrels per day.
1904 Produces a field
record of 17 million
barrels of oil nearly
as much as Texas.
Field enters a period
of maturity, with
production gradually
declining over the
next 50 years.
1913 Much of
production is shut in
for three years-
no demand for
