SAGD Steam Generation Technology Overview Traditionally OTSG's have been used in SAGD due to:

  • Less stringent water quality requirements
  • No environmental regulations on water usage and waste water disposal
  • Best technology of the day

However IWT'S are now gaining popularity in SAGD due to:

  • Much larger capacity
  • 99% steam quality
  • Modularized construction
  • Far less water wastage (0 - 2% blowdown)
  • Ability to burn alternate fuels
  • Less installed capital cost
  • Less annual operating cost
  • Significally better delivery
