Downhole Estimate of the Enthalpy Required To Heat Oil Shale and Heavy Oil Formations

In situ retorting and extraction methods for oil shale and heavy oil formations require large amounts of heat. Oil shale formations require heat to convert kerogen into oil, and heavy oil formations require heat to lower oil viscosity. We present a method by which the amount of heat required to rais...
