1 Interaction between reactivity and flow in the in-situ production of oil from oil shale2009-10-23in situ; oil shaleIn-situ Oil Shale Processing: 1) Underground resources are heated by some means to convert insoluable/ impermeable kerogen into oil and gas products. 2) The interlinked processes of heat transfer, kerogen conversion and flow are complex. 3) This paper is an attempt to understand these linkages.
2 Geologic characterization of Utah oil shale deposits2010-04-28oil shale development; geologic framework; lake evolution; oil shale; stratigraphic correlationWhy Geology? Economic prospectivity of oil shale development in the Uinta Basin relies heavily on establishing a solid geologic framework. Understanding lake evolution matters.
3 Recovery of bitumen from oil-impregnated sandstone deposits of Utah1975-11potential oil; bitumen; oil-impregnated sandstone (tar sand) deposits; tar sands; bitumen recoveryUtah contains at least 26 billion barrels of potential oil as bitumen in oil-impregnated sandstone (tar sand) deposits. As shown in this paper, these tar sands are significantly different in physical and chemical properties from commercially developed Canadian tar sands. These differences prevent di...
