A method includes producing formation fluid from a subsurface in situ heat
treatment process. The formation fluid is separated to produce a liquid
stream and a gas stream. At least a portion of the liquid stream is
provided to a hydrotreating unit. At least a portion of selected in situ
heat treatment clogging compositions in the liquid stream are removed to
produce a hydrotreated liquid stream by hydrotreating at least a portion
of the liquid stream at conditions sufficient to remove the selected in
situ heat treatment clogging compositions.
