  • Production Of Liquid Hydrocarbon Mixture For Refining Petroleum (AREA)

Abstract

Un procédé vise à utiliser les micro-ondes pour chauffer leau dans une région souterraine où l'eau chauffée est en contact avec le pétrole lourd dans la région souterraine, en vue de diminuer la viscosité du pétrole lourd et daméliorer la production de pétrole lourd.
