ABSTRACT:
A method comprises (1) piping of exhaust steam flow from a down hole steam generator positioned at the top of a petroliferous reservoir down to the bottom of the reservoir, and (2) reversing the direction of hot exhaust steam flow to saturate the complete petroliferous reservoir wall surface with the steam of uniform quality, the steam having uniformity of distribution of both liquid and vaporous phases for improved enhanced oil recovery. A new steam generator is also disclosed.
