SPONTANEOUS SUPERCRITICAL FLUID RECOVERY AND REFINING OF HYDROCARBONS FROM HYDROCARBON-BEARING FORMATIONS APPLYING MORPHING FUEL CELLS GAS IN SITU

摘要

This invention teaches supercritical fluids (SCFs) are a controlled source of energy to produce seismic waves in a hydrocarbon reservoir formation Fast Compressional Seismic Waves that travel through a rock Matrix, and liquid/solid coupled slower Compressional Seismic Waves that travel through the interconnected fluid-filled pores, are propagated through a reservoir formation from the spontaneous SCF events of hydrocarbon-reactants in hydrocarbons, generating summed and differenced frequencies of the two waves As an example a reactant like ammonia can be injected into one injector and nitrous oxide can be provided into another bore hole connected to the formation, which provides two different frequencies and forces Bentonite can be cleaned up with hydrogen peroxide, saturated with water, and have anhydrous ammonia or other reactant adsorbed in it as a carrier down hole in situ.
