Numerical simulation of diverse thermal in situ upgrading processes for the hydrocarbon production from kerogen in oil shale reservoirs

Journal Article Lee, Kyung Jae ; Moridis, George J ; Ehlig-Economides, Christine A - Energy Exploration and Exploitation

© 2017, © The Author(s) 2017. We investigate the productivity and product selectivity of diverse thermal in situ upgrading processes in oil shale reservoirs. In situ upgrading processes applying the ideas of Shell In situ Conversion Process, ExxonMobil Electrofrac, and Texas A&M Steamfrac are simulated by using sector models with the assumption of symmetric patterns. In-house fully functional simulator is used, which has been developed for the kerogen pyrolysis and hydrocarbon production. In the simulation cases, sensitivity analyses to the factors having major influence on the productivity and product selectivity are conducted. The effects of the temperature of vertical heaters,more »« less

Production of hydrocarbon gases from oil shale. [low molecular weight paraffinic hydrocarbon gases formed from preheated and prehydrogenated organic hydrocarbon portion of oil shale]

Patent Linden, H R ; Tarman, P B ; Feldkirchner, H L

The oil shale is gradually preheated in a preheat and prehydrogenation zone to a temperature of about 700/sup 0/ to about 950/sup 0/F in the presence of hydrogen-rich gas without substantial production of liquid or gas in the preheat and prehydrogenation zone. Then the preheated and prehydrogenated oil shale is treated in a hydrogasification zone at a temperature of about 1,200/sup 0/ to about 1,500/sup 0/F in the presence of hydrogen-rich gas to form predominately low molecular weight paraffinic hydrocarbon gases from the preheated and prehydrogenated organic hydrocarbon portion of the oil shale. The hydrogen-rich gas may be passed countercurrentmore »« less
Process for recovering and upgrading hydrocarbons from oil shale

Patent McCollum, J D ; Quick, L M

A process is described for recovering and upgrading hydrocarbons from oil shale by contacting the oil shale solids in the presence of an acidic or oxidative catalytic substance with a water-containing fluid at a temperature in the range of from at least 705/sup 0/F, the critical temperature of water; to about 900/sup 0/F, in the absence of externally supplied hydrogen, wherein the water has a density of at least 0.15 gram per milliliter. Examples of such acidic or oxidative catalytic substance are molecular oxygen, sodium bisulfate, sodium bisulfite, and carbon dioxide.
Process for recovering and upgrading hydrocarbons from oil shale and tar sands

Patent McCollum, J D ; Quick, L M

A process is described for recovering hydrocarbons from oil shale or tar sands solids and simultaneously for cracking, desulfurizing, and demetalating the recovered hydrocarbons. The oil shale or tar sands solids is contacted with a water-containing fluid under superatmospheric pressure, at a temperature in the range of from about 600 to about 900/sup 0/F, in the absence of externally supplied hydrogen, and in the presence of an externally supplied, sulfur-resistant catalyst, selected from the group consisting of at least one basic metal carbonate, basic metal hydroxide, transition metal oxide, oxide-forming transition metal salt, and combinations of these. The catalyst ismore »« less
