Abstract
In one aspect, this invention provides a method for the in-situ production of natural gas, light crude oil, or sequences or mixtures thereof, comprising the steps of: (a) suspending a catalytic polymer bead in a fracturing medium, wherein said catalytic polymer bead is nearly neutrally buoyant in said fracturing medium; (b) introducing said suspension into a formation at sufficiently high rates and pressures that the formation fails and fractures to accept said suspension; and (c) collecting the natural gas, light crude oil, or sequences or mixtures thereof, generated by the subterranean formation. In another aspect, this invention provides compositions of matter for said catalytic polymer beads. In yet another aspect, this invention provides processing methods for producing said catalytic polymer beads.
