Benefits of technology

This patented technology allows for better ways to extract shale oils from rocks by combining both techniques like burning them or injecting it into porous media under specific conditions called high pressure liquid (HPL) injection. These technical results help make more effective use of these processes than just one technique alone.

Problems solved by technology

This patents discuss how shale oils exist around the globe but they lack certain qualities such as being too expensive for commercial use because their supply fluctuates widely over time (making them difficult to find). Additionally, these sources may contain impurities like sulfur compounds found during drilling operations, making them challenging to extract from without contaminants. These factors make it hard to develop commercially viable products based solely upon shale resources alone.

Abstract

The invention discloses an on-line monitoring device and method for in-situ mining of shale oil through combination of laser and supercritical water. The on-line monitoring device comprises a laser generating device, a gas generating device, a supercritical water generating device, a heating device, an on-line monitoring device and the like. The laser generating device generates high-energy laser beams, the gas generating device generates active gas, the oil shale layer is heated underground through the heating device, the online monitoring device monitors in-situ shale oil exploitation conditions online and observes operation site pictures in real time, and the supercritical water injection device injects generated supercritical water into the oil shale layer. And entering a pore throat. The high-energy laser beam acts on the active gas, so that the gas is activated, an explosive thermal chemical reaction occurs, the oil shale is crushed and chemically modified, and finally the shale is quickly crushed. According to the method, environmental pollution caused by shale oil in the ground refining process can be avoided, the economic benefit is high, the production cost can be effectively reduced, the working efficiency is improved, and the oil yield is greatly improved.
