Patent

CA 2406729

A system for heating an underground hydrocarbon containing formation comprises an electrical conductor disposed within a heater well traversing the formation to provide radiant heat to at least a portion of the formation to initiate pyrolysis of hydrocarbons, wherein the electrical conductor comprises one or more elongate electrically conductive heater members which are each suspended in a fluid filled section of a heater well by a support member. The heater members may be bare metal strips or rods and may be arranged in an uncased section of the heater well in which a pressurized fluid, such as air, is circulated to remove hydrocarbon deposits from the heater members.

L'invention concerne un système de chauffage pour une formation souterraine contenant des hydrocarbures. Ce système comprend un conducteur électrique disposé à l'intérieur d'un puits chauffant traversant la formation, afin de produire une chaleur rayonnante sur au moins une partie de la formation et, ainsi, déclencher la pyrolyse des hydrocarbures. Le conducteur électrique comprend un ou plusieurs éléments de chauffage électroconducteurs allongés, lesquels sont suspendus, par un élément de support, dans un compartiment rempli de fluide d'un puits chauffant. Les éléments de chauffage, qui peuvent être des bandes ou des tiges de métal nu, peuvent être disposés dans un compartiment découvert du puits chauffant dans lequel un fluide sous pression, tel que l'air, est mis en circulation afin d'éliminer les dépôts présents sur les éléments de chauffage.
