Abstract
A method of modeling electromagnetic heating for oil recovery for a wide range of frequencies includes arranging a plurality of electrodes and/or antennas in an array in a multi-layer earth model of a reservoir formation, wherein the arranging includes selecting a number of electrodes/antennas and an array topology; selecting a frequency of the array; determining a temperature profile of the reservoir using the frequency and reservoir formation characteristics; providing the a heat rate to a reservoir simulator; inputting reservoir characteristics into the reservoir simulator; calculating, by processor, an oil recovery production rate of the reservoir based on the heat rate and reservoir characteristics; and graphically displaying the oil recovery production rate.
