Abstract: Methods for treating a tar sands formation are described herein. Methods for treating a tar sands may include heating a portion of a hydrocarbon layer in the formation from one or more heaters located in the portion. The heat may be controlled to increase the permeability of at least part of the portion to create an injection zone in the portion with an average permeability sufficient to allow injection of a fluid through the injection zone. A drive fluid and/or an oxidizing fluid may be provided into the injection zone. At least some hydrocarbons are produced from the portion.

Abstract: The invention provides a system that includes a heater comprising one or more electrical conductors. The heater is configured to generate a heat output during application of electrical current to the heater. The heater comprises a ferromagnetic material. A conduit at least partially surrounds the heater. A fluid is located in a space between the heater and the conduit. The fluid has a higher thermal conductivity than air at standard temperature and pressure (STP) (0 °C and 101.325 kPa). The system is configured to provide (a) a first heat output below a selected temperature when time-varying electrical current is applied to the heater, and (b) a second heat output near or above the selected temperature when time-varying electrical current is applied to the heater.

Abstract: The invention provides a heater, comprising: a ferromagnetic member; an electrical conductor electrically coupled to the ferromagnetic member, wherein the electrical conductor is configured to provide heat output below the Curie temperature of the ferromagnetic member. The electrical conductor is configured to conduct a majority of the electrical current of the heater at 25 °C. The heater automatically provides a reduced amount of heat approximately at and above the Curie temperature of the ferromagnetic member.
