A first gaseous stream is rapidly dispersed into a second flowing gaseous stream in an inline mixing apparatus comprising a mixing zone containing (a) an inlet for the introduction into said mixing zone of the second gaseous stream at one end of the zone; (b) a gas velocity- and static pressure-stab ...
A method of treating a hydrocarbon containing formation comprises providing a first barrier to a first portion of the formation; removing water from the first portion; providing a second barrier to a second portion of the formation, wherein the second portion comprises methane: removing water from t ...
An electrical conductor of a subsurface heating system in a subsurface formation has an electrically resistive portion configured to provide a heat output when an alternating current is applied through it, and is configured, when above or near a selected temperature, to provide a reduced heat output ...
