Abstract

See full text

A method for enhanced subsurface hydrocarbon recovery, comprising the use of at least one in-situ broadband antenna to radiate radio frequency energy into the reservoir to heat a target zone. The use of a broadband antenna allows for compensation of growing impedance mismatch between the antenna and the reservoir that occurs during recovery operations.
