HIGH-VISCOSITY OIL FILTRATION IN THE POOL UNDER THERMAL ACTION

We have developed a mathematical model and constructed numerical solutions of the problem of heating a highviscosity oil pool through one horizontal well or a system of wells and have shown the possibility of their further operation until the limiting profi table discharge of oil is attained. The expenditure of heat in heating the oil pool, the evolution of discharge of oil, and the mass of extracted oil over the considered period have been considered.
