ABSTRACT:
A method for selecting a location of a wellbore includes: using a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) instrument deployed on a surface of a production area, determining a location of ground water in the production area; and locating the wellbore according to the location of the ground water. A system and a computer program product are disclosed as well as a method for performing steam assisted gravity recovery.
