发明名称 Method for producing hydrocarbon resources with RF and conductive heating and related apparatuses
摘要 A method is for producing hydrocarbon resources in a subterranean formation having therein an injector well and a producer well adjacent the injector well. The method may include conductively heating the subterranean formation by causing a current flow between the injector and producer wells, RF heating the subterranean formation after conductive heating by supplying RF power from at least the injector well, and producing the hydrocarbon resources from the producer well.

主权项 1. A method for producing hydrocarbon resources in a subterranean formation having therein an injector well and a producer well adjacent thereto, the method comprising: conductively heating the subterranean formation by causing a current flow between the injector and producer wells and using a conductive heating source operating at less than or equal to 60 Hz; radio frequency (RF) heating the subterranean formation after conductive heating by supplying RF power from at least the injector well; and producing the hydrocarbon resources from the producer well.
