摘要： Methods for repurposing thermal hydrocarbon recovery operations where the reservoir, which has been previously treated with steam for hydrocarbon mobilization, is further treated with an oxidizer to induce one or more of thermal cracking (thermolysis), gasification, water-gas shift, and aquathermolysis reactions to generate synthesis gas within the reservoir, which synthesis gas or its constituent components can then be produced to surface.

摘要： A petroleum reservoir is treated with heat to induce gasification, water-gas shift, and/or aquathermolysis reactions to generate synthesis gas comprising hydrogen gas. The synthesis gas is produced to the surface using one or more production wells.
