    摘要: Systems and methods for decreasing compaction within a pyrolyzed zone are disclosed herein. The methods include injecting a sealing fluid into the pyrolyzed zone and flowing the sealing fluid to a peripheral region of the pyrolyzed zone. The methods further include fluidly sealing the peripheral region of the pyrolyzed zone with a sealing fluid where fluidly sealing limits a fluid leakage from the pyrolyzed zone. Subsequent to the fluidly sealing, the methods further include pressurizing the pyrolyzed zone to a zone pressure. The systems include hydrocarbon production systems and/or components thereof that are formed using the methods.

    摘要: A method for containing and capturing liquids and gases generated during in situ pyrolysis that migrate through pyrolysis generated or natural fractures includes placing a row of horizontal hydraulic fractures above and below the heated zone and completing production wells within the horizontal hydraulic fractures. The method serves at least two purposes: 1) provides a local zone of weak mechanical strength to blunt the propagation of vertical pyrolysis generated fractures and 2) provides a drainage point for fluids to relieve pressure in the formation and improve recovery. Preferably, the organic-rich rock formation is an oil shale formation.

    摘要: A method of obtaining a thermal cracking feedstock for the production of olefins from an in-situ extracted oil-shale formation. The method comprises the steps of obtaining compositional analyses data for a set of in-situ extracted shale oils, the set of in-situ extracted shale oils produced at varied production temperatures and/or levels of lithostatic stress; determining from the compositional analyses data a value of a production temperature or a lithostatic stress that when achieved produces an in-situ extracted shale oil having a concentration of aromatics at or below a target level, the target level suitable for the production of olefins by thermal cracking; adjusting oil-shale formation extraction conditions to achieve the values for production temperature and/or lithostatic stress; and producing an in-situ extracted shale oil suitable for use as a thermal cracking feedstock for the production of olefins. A method for processing a hydrocarbon produced from a feed oil-shale formation to produce olefins is also provided.
