Abstract: Systems and methods for treating a subsurface formation are described herein. A method of heating a subsurface formation may include applying heat from a plurality of heaters to the formation, and allowing a portion of one or more of the heaters to move out of wellheads equipped with sliding seals to accommodate thermal expansion of the heaters.

Abstract translation: 本文描述了用于处理地下地层的系统和方法。 加热地下地层的方法可以包括将热量从多个加热器施加到地层，并且允许一个或多个加热器的一部分移出配备有滑动密封件的井口，以适应加热器的热膨胀。

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 translation: 本文描述了处理焦油砂形成的方法。 用于处理焦油砂的方法可以包括从位于该部分中的一个或多个加热器加热地层中的一部分烃层。 可以控制热量以增加部分的至少一部分的渗透性，以在该部分中产生具有足以允许流体通过注射区注入的平均渗透性的注射区域。 可以将驱动流体和/或氧化流体提供到注射区域中。 从该部分产生至少一些烃。

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: Methods for forming a barrier around at least a portion of a treatment area in a subsurface formation are described herein. A material including wax may be introduced into one or more wellbores. The material introduced into two or more wells may mix in the formation and congeal to form a barrier to fluid flow.
