Wondering if RF XL system can't be more efficient?
I'm thinking the principles used in heat recovery and/or combined cycle natgas turbines.
I assum the produced water from an RF XL producer well will be near boiling temperatures.
Wondering if AXE has plans to recover the heat from the produced water to further generate at surface base load electricity? The second cycle energy that can be used on-site or sent back down hole instead of being wasted.

Great question to ask the company. I'm sure the guys who spent years developing an efficient, low cost, low carbon heavy oil recovery technology never considered it. Won't hurt to ask though.
