Electrical well heating system and method

A method is disclosed for treating a hydrocarbon containing formation in-situ and producing a hydrocarbon fluid from the formation, which method comprises pyrolysing hydrocarbons present in the formation at a hydrogen partial pressure of at least 1 bar and at most 50 bar, thereby producing hydrocarb...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method is disclosed for treating a hydrocarbon containing formation in-situ and producing a hydrocarbon fluid from the formation, which method comprises pyrolysing hydrocarbons present in the formation at a hydrogen partial pressure of at least 1 bar and at most 50 bar, thereby producing hydrocarbons having a high API gravity, a low carbon number and a low olefins and poly-aromatic compound content.
