Abstract
Experiments were conducted simulating the hydrothermal effect on heavy oil in the presence of carbonate, kaolin, Al2O3, Ni+2 and Cu+2, NiO mixed with poly-α-olefins, C6H8O7, C2H4O2 at temperatures of 290-375°C and pressures from 1,0 to 13.5 MPa. As a result of the research, a decrease in the viscosity of the organic end products of hydrothermal exposure due to the redistribution of n-alkanes in the direction of the formation of low-molecular homologs was established. This led to an increase in the content of saturated hydrocarbons and light fractions in the final products of the conducted studies. Under hydrothermal conditions of heavy oil conversion, products of the reactions of destruction of the results of the research can be applied in the development of new innovative technologies for the development of unconventional hydrocarbon resources.
