A method for accelerating the conversion of kerogen to hydrocarbons in a subterranean formation containing organic-rich rock that is located in the vicinity of reservoir-quality strata. Sufficient heat is generated in the reservoir-quality strata such that it heats the organic-rich rock in the subterranean formation and accelerates the conversion of kerogen to hydrocarbons in the formation.

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant d'accélérer la conversion du kérogène en hydrocarbures dans une formation souterraine contenant des roches organiques riches situées à proximité de strates de type réservoir. On produit dans ces strates une chaleur suffisante destinée à chauffer les roches organiques riches dans la formation souterraine et à accélérer la conversion, dans cette formation, du kérogène en hydrocarbures.
