Abstract

See full text

A hydrocarbon containing formation may be treated using an in situ thermal process. Hydrocarbons, H2, and/or other formation fluids may be produced from the formation. Heat may be applied to the formation from heat sources to raise a temperature of a portion of the formation to a desired temperature. Some of the heat sources may be insulated conductors, such as mineral insulated cables. The insulated conductors may provide radiant heat to a portion of the formation.
