Abstract: A method of producing hydrocarbons from subterranean formations comprises an influence on a hydrocarbon containing bed (1) and extraction of hydrocarbons therefrom through a well (2). The influence on the hydrocarbon containing bed (1) is exerted by means of acting on an aquiferous bed (3) underlying the carbon containing bed (1) by elastic vibrations.

Abstract: The device comprises an oscillator with electrodes, which is mounted in a casing, means for oscillation excitation, for measuring, recording and processing of signals, and a computer, the attachment of the oscillator being effected by means of balls with electroconducting surface and the oscillator being mounted in a holder with the possibility of movement in relation to the balls. The oscillator may be executed in different variants, for example in the form of a cylinder, disk, rod, plate, ball, and it may be hollow and may contain a partition as well as elements increasing its useful surface. The device is provided with a high-pressure vessel and is also used under high pressures.
