Relevance of the work is to determine the optimal parameters for the development and exploration of the Egyptian oil field by steam heat exposure, using the Petrel simulator modules. The main objectives of the simulation using the simulator are to study the effect of steam dryness, steam injection rate, and the distance between wells under steam heat exposure. To explain the feasibility of using a specific modeling technology, simulation programs using numerical modeling methods are used, which gives us the opportunity to justify several development options and focus on the best among them, using the results obtained for further forecasting.

Key words: oil recovery, thermal development methods, oil, highviscosity oil
