ABSTRACT:
A method of controlled thermal linking of an injection well and a production well, both penetrating an underground formation, accomplished by injecting oxidant into the annulus of the injection well and fuel into the tubing of an injection well in stoichiometric proportions, and initiating a combustion zone at the production well which propagates along a predictable path in the formation which is a deviated or horizontal portion of the injection well.
