摘要： A method is described for inhibiting migration of fluids into and/or out of a treatment area undergoing an in situ conversion process. Barriers in the formation proximate a treatment area may be used to inhibit migration of fluids. Inhibition of migration of fluids may occur before, during, and/or after an in situ treatment process. For example, migration of fluids may be inhibited while heat is provided from heaters to at least a portion of the treatment area. Barriers may include naturally occurring portions (e.g., overburden, and/or underburden) and/or installed portions.

摘要： An in-situ method of extracting oil from a hydrocarbon bearing layer such as oil-shale or tar sands lying beneath a surface layer comprises applying a radiofrequency excitation signal to the hydrocarbon bearing layer through a system of electrodes. The electrodes are inserted into a matrix of holes drilled through the surface layer and into the hydrocarbon bearing layer. A coaxial line extending through the surface layer is connected to the electrodes extending into the hydrocarbon bearing layer. The electrodes have a length that is an integral number of quarter wavelengths of the radiofrequency energy. A matching network connected between the coaxial cable and a respective one of the electrodes maximizes the power flow into each electrode. The electrodes are excited uniformly in rows and as a "balanced-line" RF array where adjacent rows of electrodes are 180.degree. out of phase. This method does not produce substantial heating of the surface layer or the region surrounding the producing layer, and concentrates most of its power in the hydrocarbon bearing layer.

摘要： A system for treating a subsurface formation includes a wellbore at least partially located in a hydrocarbon containing formation. The wellbore includes a substantially vertical portion and at least two substantially horizontal or inclined portions coupled to the vertical portion. A first conductor is at least partially positioned in a first of the two substantially horizontal or inclined portions of the wellbore. At least the first conductor includes electrically conductive material. A power supply electrically excites the electrically conductive materials of the first conductor such that current flows between the electrically conductive materials in the first conductor, through at least a portion of the formation, to a second conductor at least partially positioned in a second of the two substantially horizontal or inclined portions of the wellbore. The current resistively heats at least a portion of the formation between the two substantially horizontally oriented or inclined portions of the wellbore.
