“…A direct correlation between the increase in porosity and permeability and the combustion temperature was reported. Ponomarev et al [45] conducted thermal treatment of source rock with and without the effect of a magnetic field. The results show that when the source rock was heated in the presence of a magnetic field, the total content of naphthene is 87%, different from when the source rocks were heated in the absence of a magnetic field at the same temperature.…”

Shale and tight oil reservoirs, with horizontal wells and hydraulic fractures, typically have a recovery ratio of around 10%. The exploration of tight oil and shale in North America has proven economically viable, thanks to advancements, such as horizontal wells, hydraulic fracturing, and other enhanced oil recovery techniques. Taking inspiration from the global experience (the North American shale experience), the exploration and development of the West Siberian tight and shale reserves was more focused on the reported best practices of the exploration of North American shale. In this study, the advance in the specific areas of shale and tight oil exploration was considered, with more emphasis placed on the progress in the exploration of West Siberian shales. According to the review literature, thermal enhanced recovery methods capable of converting organic matter into hydrocarbons were studied more than other methods of enhanced oil recovery. Aligned with global trends, there has been a growing focus on research aiming to integrate data-driven approaches and pore-scale simulations to enhance recovery from tight and shale formations. Multiple pilot studies have showcased promising prospects for implementing multistage hydraulic fracturing. Nevertheless, there are limited pilot studies dedicated to enhanced oil recovery methods for West Siberian shale.

“…In the other work [16], it is shown that the exposure of oil to a 50 Hz low-frequency field changes the fractional composition of oil. In our recent studies [40][41][42], we reported the results of experimental studies on the variation in the chemical composition of oil when exposed to a 50 Hz electromagnetic field and a 50 mT constant magnetic field combined with a thermal treatment. Below, we outlined the most significant results from those studies that demonstrate the magnetic fields breakdown the -C-C-bonds in heavy components of oil and transform the same into lighter components (Figures 4 and 5).…”

This review paper presents controversial issues on the formation of hydrocarbon deposits. We look into the geological contradictions of the abiogenic and biogenic theories of petroleum origin, indicating the connection between hydrocarbon deposits and disjunctive dislocations, as well as present disputes about the geological period over which hydrocarbon deposits have been formed. We further overviewed the radical chain mechanism of hydrocarbon generation from organic matter as proposed by Prof. Nesterov. It is noted that the petroleum generation process in reservoir conditions occurs almost instantly in the presence of discrete geomagnetic fields and does not require a long geological time. This is explained by spin magnetic effects (spin catalysis, magnetic isotope properties). We briefly highlight the effect of magnetic fields on chemical reactions involving organic compounds and the use of magnetic fields to enhance oil recovery. We also present the leading causes of discrete magnetic fields in the sedimentary cover: Earth’s geomagnetic reversals, generation of ferromagnetic minerals in oil deposits, electromechanical effects of rock friction near faults, and intermixing of reservoir waters with different mineralization (spontaneous ion polarization). Based on the material reported, we conclude that the radical chain mechanism of petroleum generation processes explains some contradictions of the abiogenic and biogenic theories of petroleum origin. Elaborating this research area has excellent prospects for developing new criteria for hydrocarbon prospecting and devising innovative methods to enhance the oil recovery for shale oil production.
