  • R&D Data Gaps Identified for Model Development of Oil
    OIL SHALE DEVELOPMENT FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF NETL’S UNCONVENTIONAL OIL RESOURCE REPOSITORY Mark W. Smith+, Lawrence J. Shadle∗, and Daniel L. Hill+ National Energy Technology Laboratory U. S. Department of Energy 3610 Collins Ferry Rd. Morgantown, West Virginia 26507-0880 +REM Engineering Services, PLLC 3537 Collins Ferry Rd. Morgantown, West Virginia 26505 ABSTRACT- The history of oil shale development was examined by gathering relevant research literature for an Unconventional Oil Resource Repository. This repository contains over 17,000 entries from over 1,000 different sources. The development of oil shale has been hindered by a number of factors. These technical, political, and economic factors have brought about R&D boom-bust cycles. It is not surprising that these cycles are strongly correlated to market crude oil prices. However, it may be possible to influence some of the other factors through a sustained, yet measured, approach to R&D in both the public and private sectors. 1.0 INTRODUCTION Shale development in the United States began in the late 1800’s. The technology commonly applied was called retorting and the application was generally for domestic uses. However, as industrialization proceeded there have been economic cycles in which the required liquid fuels have been in short supply and entrepreneurs have turned to the vast proven oil shale reserves of the Green River Formation. The USGS estimates greater than 2 Trillion barrels of oil are available in the US in the form of oil shale with nearly 1.4 Trillion barrels being concentrated in the rich deposits of the Green River Basin (Dyni, 2003).

All-Russia Petroleum Research Exploration Institute (VNIGRI), Saint Petersburg, Russia, [email protected] SOME ASPECTS OF OIL SHALE - FINDING KEROGEN TO GENERATE OIL Oil demand is predicted to continue to increase despite the high price of oil. The lagging supply increased the prices for oil and gas and a definitive oil replacement has still not been found. Huge oil shale resources discovered in the world, if developed, may increase petroleum supplies. Developing of oil shale needs the availability of low cost production; the greatest risks facing oil shale developing are higher production expenses and lower oil prices. There are several technologies for producing oil from kerogen bearing oil shale, by pyrolysis (heating, retorting). Oil shale is still technologically difficult and expensive to produce and the major impediment is cost. Developing oil shale accumulations means to face huge challenges, but an efficient oil shale development can be accomplished and an acceptable oil shale industry based on new technologies can be built nowadays. Key words: shale, continuous accumulation, oil shale, shale oil, total organic carbon, Rock- Eval, reserves estimation, Fischer assay, mining and retorting, in situ retorting and extraction, in capsule extraction. Introduction Continuous accumulations are extensive petroleum reservoirs not necessarily related to conventional structural or stratigraphic traps [Klett and Charpentier, 2006]. These accumulations lack well defined down-dip petroleum water contacts and these are not localised by the buoyancy of oil or natural gas in water [Schmoker, 1996].

Klumpar, C.R. Peterson & T.A.

Abstract This study analyzed the recovery of oil from oil shale by use of proposed systems which incorporate beneficiation of the shale ore (that is, concentration of the kerogen) before the oil-recovery step. The objective was to identify systems which could be more attractive than conventional surface retorting of ore. No experimental work was carried out. The systems analyzed consisted of beneficiation methods which could increase kerogen concentrations by at least four-fold. Potentially attractive low-enrichment methods such as density separation were not examined. The technical alternatives considered were bounded by the secondary crusher as input and raw shale oil as output. A sequence of ball milling, froth flotation, and retorting concentrate is not attractive for Western shales compared to conventional ore retorting; transporting the concentrate to another location for retorting reduces air emissions in the ore region but cost reduction is questionable.

  • Distinctive Oil Shale Pyrolysis Behavior in Indirectly Heated Fixed Bed With
    RSC Advances PAPER View Article Online View Journal | View Issue Distinctive oil shale pyrolysis behavior in indirectly heated fixed bed with internals Cite this: RSC Adv.,2017,7, 21467 Lanxin Lin,ab Dengguo Lai,ab Zhen Shi,ab Zhennan Hanab and Guangwen Xu *ac Intrinsic characteristics of oil shale pyrolysis in a fixed bed reactor with internals have been investigated in this study. Mounting particularly designed internals in fixed bed reactor improved shale oil production to up to 90% yield by Fischer assay. Comparing particle characteristics at different radial positions of the reactors with and without internals demonstrated that, inside the particle bed with internals, the product flow was regulated to move from the high-temperature zone (outer) to low-temperature zone (center), which reduced the secondary reactions of released volatiles. Terminating oil shale pyrolysis at central particle bed temperatures of 150, 300, 450, and 550 C showed that the contents of vacuum gas oil and heavy oil in the shale oil produced had increased from 9.63 wt% to 53.29 wt%. The volatile contents of particles in the inner layer of the reactor slightly increased in the early stage of pyrolysis and, in turn, decomposed to form pyrolysis products as the temperature was raised. The adsorption or condensation of liquids on Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. the surface of particles gradually increased from the outer region to the central region of the reactor due to the regulated product flow direction and low temperatures in the central zone of the reactor causing heavy components to condense. Increasing the degree of pyrolysis was also found to decrease Received 25th February 2017 the alkene, aromatic, and cycloalkane contents in shale oil, but increased those of alkane and Accepted 3rd April 2017 heteroatomic compounds.

PIKKOV Department of Chemical Engineering, Tallinn Technical University 5 Ehitajate Rd., 19086 Tallinn, Estonia L. KEKISHEVA Oil Shale Research Institute 35 Järveküla Rd., 30328 Kohtla-Järve, Estonia Process water and phenols’ balances for the two processes of oil shale ther- mal treatment, Kiviter (in vertical retort) and Galoter (with solid heat car- rier) were compiled. Options of wastewater treatment in the Kiviter process were analyzed in more detail. Laboratory experiments of biological oxidation of the process water after the dephenolation stage without other effluents and municipal wastewater were carried out. Experiments indicated that the oil shale phenols are generally quite easily degradable when the need for phos- phorus is covered by added reagents. The experiments indicated that, com- pared to conventional aerobic bio-oxidation, the combined process, namely aerobic bio-oxidation with ozonation in re-circulation system, enabled to in- crease the efficiency of purification at relatively low ozone dosages. Applica- tion of ozone at moderate doses (up to 30 mg/L) improved the rate of pollut- ant removal. Injection of ozone at small dose – 2 mg/L – into the activated sludge in the bioreactor increased the sludge activity: the specific oxygen up- take increased about 15–20%. The biologically treated wastewater can be used as some kind of technological water (cooling water) after chemical pre- cipitation and reduction of sulphate content. It can also been discharged to nature, but only after additional treatment to reduce nitrogen content and af- ter filtration to remove the residual suspended solids.
