ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method of creating a protocol for oil extraction or for enhancing oil extraction from oil reservoirs. A process of devising and applying a customized electromag- netic irradiation protocol to individual reservoirs. Reservoir samples are tested to datermine their content, molecular resonance frequencies and the effects of electro- magnetic field on their compounds. Electromagnetic field frequencies, intensities, wave forms and durations necess- ary to heat and/or crack individual molecules and produce plasma torches is determined. Equipment are selected and installed according to the results of the laboratory tests and the geophysics of the mine. Dielectric constant of the formation is reduced by draining the water and drying it with electromagnetic energy. A combination of the effects of microwave flooding, plasma torch activation, molecular cracking and selective heating are used to heat the oil within the reservoir, by controlling frequency, intensity, duration, direction and wave form of the electromagnetic field. Conditions of the reservoir are continuously monitored during production to act as feedback for modifi- cation of the irradiation protocol.
