  • Publication number: 20200284129
    Abstract: A device for the efficient extraction of bitumen, shale oil, very heavy and light oil that uses a fully automated control system, which consists of a mining assembly in the oil layer and a control unit connected to processing unit, which are on the surface. The mining assembly is provided with a casing which is provided with a perforation, where in the casing an inner riser is arranged and around this inner riser, which is also provided with a perforation and has a firm bottom, whereas the inner riser is open at the bottom and its bottom is above the bottom of outer riser, whereas through the inner riser is led a cable which is with its end anchored in the oil layer to the bottom of the outer riser and with the other end is led to the surface of the control unit, whereas in the space between the bottom and the end of the inner riser at least one sensor on the cable is arranged and it is connected by the cable to the control unit and the control unit is connected to processing unit.

  • Publication number: 20190040725
    Abstract: Method for extracting hydrocarbons, including very heavy ones, using gas generating chemical reactions, wherein a compound for generating hot gases and initiators or, as the case may be, stabilizers for a chemical reaction are separately fed into the respective source bed in a controlled manner, where least four coplanar horizontal openings are created in each plane intersecting the location, where the compound and the initiators get together, and, simultaneously or after a specified delay, gas-forming substances are fed, said substances being contained in a mixture along with the compound or supplied separately, wherein the reaction takes place underneath a packer, whereby prerequisites for an artificial gas lift are created, whereupon the reaction is maintained by adding the compound, whereby such values of temperature and pressure are obtained which cause the solid rock to cleave.

  • Patent number: 9410407
    Abstract: Disclosed is a chemical system of gas evolving oil viscosity diminishing compositions (GEOVDC) for stimulating the productive layer of an oil reservoir, that is to chemical compositions for a thermochemical treatment of an oil reservoir, more specifically for initiating a chemical reaction in the productive layer zone of the oil reservoir to produce heat and evolve gases so that the extraction of oil (petroleum) is improved. Further disclosed is a method of thermochemically treating an oil reservoir by means of this chemical system, and an apparatus for performing thermochemical treatment of an oil reservoir.

  • Patent number: 9388677
    Abstract: It is provided a method and an apparatus for continuously thermally treating an oil reservoir, in particular a method and an apparatus for thermally treating an oil reservoir by separately introducing a first and a second composition into an oil well and contacting the first and second compositions in a pay zone of the oil reservoir to initiate a chemical reaction producing heat and gases. With the method and apparatus according to the present invention it becomes possible to simultaneously introduce the compositions into the oil well and to extract the resultant oil or oil containing mixture through the same oil well.
