Abstract
La présente invention concerne un procédé de production d'hydrocarbures provenant d'une formation souterraine. Ce procédé comprend les étapes suivantes: constitution d'un ensemble d'au moins trois puits horizontaux (10a, 10b et 10c); établissement de l'injectivité dans la formation; établissement d'une communication entre des sections horizontales voisines de puits (10a, 10b et 10c) dans l'ensemble en question; injection d'un liquide par la partie horizontale d'un puits extérieur (10a) pendant la production d'hydrocarbures et de liquides associés par la section horizontale d'un puits (10b) immédiatement voisin du puits extérieur, avec exécution simultanée des opérations d'injection et de production pour des couples de puits (10b et 10c) restants voisins, dans l'ensemble précité, de telle sorte que, par rapport à tout puits particulier (10b) qu'on est en train d'utiliser pour l'injection de liquide, tout puits (10a et 10c) de cet ensemble qui en est immédiatement voisin est utilisé à ce moment pour la production de liquide. Avec ce procédé, les hydrocarbures et les liquides associés sont produits avec un débit cumulé, pour tout l'ensemble, qui établit une différence de pression entre les puits (10a, 10b et 10c) de l'ensemble.
