Steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD), used in horizontal wells, involves steam injection for viscosity reduction and gravity segregation for flow.<ref name="r11" /> Prototype wells were drilled from an underground mine from 1984 to 1986, and the first commercial projects began production in Canada in 2001. | [[Steam assisted gravity drainage|Steam-assisted gravity drainage]] (SAGD), used in horizontal wells, involves steam injection for viscosity reduction and gravity segregation for flow.<ref name="r11" /> Prototype wells were drilled from an underground mine from 1984 to 1986, and the first commercial projects began production in Canada in 2001. | ||
