Abstract

See full text

Methods and systems monitor conditions in a hydrocarbon reservoir with a multilateral observation well. The observation well may detect vertical development of a steam chamber that forms in the reservoir during thermal hydrocarbon recovery operations. Further, the observation well may include branches that extend to form vertical bores with temperature sensors for the monitoring, which may occur during the recovery operations performed in other wells since the observation well may be dedicated to only the monitoring.
