AMENDED CLAIMS

received by the International Bureau on 11 December 2016 (11.12.2016)

1. A method of extracting gas from the gas shale deposit by the partial combustion of hydrocarbons in the deposit in air, characterized in that the gas extraction process is carried out with the use of a pipeline (3) through which a flammable materia* is provided, it is lit up, resulting in the ignition of the gas shale deposit (2), and then the process of controlling the amount of air, used for the partial combustion of hydrocarbons in a shale gas deposit, and for discharging gas from the gas shale deposit (2) to the surface of the earth the pipeline (3) is used or the supply shaft, the amount of air supplied through the pipeline (3) or through the supply shaft to the gas shale deposit (2) being adjusted so as to ensure the conversion of hydrocarbons in the solid state into the liquid and gaseous state through the process of pyrolysis and hydrocarbons in the liquid into a gaseous state.

2. A method according to claim 1, characterized in that the amount of air used to support partial combustion of hydrocarbons in a gas shale deposit to the pipeline (3) or to the supply shaft and the amount of gas discharged from the shale gas deposit (2) is controlled alternatively by means of the valves (5) installed on the pipe (4) and the valve (7) installed on the pipeline (5).

3. A devise for extracting gas from the gas shale deposit in the form of a pipeline characterized by that it has the a form of the pipeline (3) with upper air-tight cover (10) mounted to pipeline (3) equipped with an air-tight hatch (9) and with an air-tight cover (8), through which a combustible material is provided is provided to start partial burning of hydrocarbons within the gas shale deposit (2), with the pipe (4) supplying air with increased pressure equipped with a valve (5) controlling the pressure and amount of air supplied, with the pipeline (6) discharging gases from the shale gas deposit (2) resulting from the partial combustion of hydrocarbons equipped with a pressure gauge valve (7) and with the openings (13)for the partial combustion of hydrocarbons within a shale gas deposit and discharging gases from the shale gas deposit (2) through the pipe (6).

4. A devise according to claim 3, characterized by that it has supply shaft instead pipeline (3)
