Results of experimental investigations of the time dependences 
of the change in the temperature of an oil pool and in the discharge 
of an oil "well" under the action of a microwave electromagnetic field 
are presented. An experimental setup is described. It is shown that 
the temperature is distributed nonuniformly over the thickness of 
the oil pool depending on the initial discharge of the well and the 
time of the microwave electromagnetic action on the face zone of the 
pool.
