Abstract

THE PRESENT INVENTION PROVIDES A METHOD FOR THE IN-SITU PYROLYSIS OF HYDROCARBONS INA SUBTERRANEAN KEROGEN-CONTAINING FORMATION, COMPRISING: PROVIDING HEAT TO AT LEAST A PORTION OF THE KEROGEN-CONTAINING FORMATION SUCH THAT AT LEAST A PART OF THE HEATED PORTION REACHES THE PYROLYSIS TEMPERATURE OF KEROGEN, YIELDING PYROLYSIS PRODUCTS; AND COLLECTING PYROLYSIS PRODUCTS FROM THE SUBTERRANEAN FORMATION; WHEREIN THE SUBTERRANEAN FORMATION IS SELECTED TO COMPRISE KEROGEN WITH A VITRINITE REFLECTANCE OF 0.2 TO 3.0%. FURTHER, THE INVENTION PROVIDES A METHOD FOR SYNTHESIS GAS PRODUCTION AFTER THE COLLECTION OF PYROLYSIS PRODUCTS BY ALLOWING THE KEROGEN-CONTAINING FORMATION TO REACT WITH A SYNTHESIS GAS GENERATING FLUID.
