The results of experimental investigations of degassing 
of hydrocarbon fluids in a high-frequency electromagnetic field and 
on electric heating are presented. Its relationship to a change in 
temperature and to the dielectric properties of fluids has been 
established. The effect of a virtually instantaneous evolution of gas 
from oil after the switching-in of a source of high-frequency electro-
magnetic energy has been revealed. It is shown that the dependence of 
the amount of the gas evolved from oil on power is nonlinear.
