Abstract
Processus sur place permettant de récupérer des hydrocarbures lourds dans un réservoir souterrain. Linvention comprend la fourniture dune série de paires de puits, p. ex. de grainage par gravité au moyen de vapeur, pour la récupération des hydrocarbures lourds; lexploitation de la série pour produire des hydrocarbures et former des chambres rassemblées; létablissement dune communication fluide entre les chambres rassemblées pour créer une zone inter-puits rassemblée; lexploitation dau moins un puits à titre de puits dinjection de gaz comburant; linjection de gaz comburant à travers le puits dinjection de gaz comburant et vers lune des chambres rassemblées correspondantes afin de former une région de combustion soutenue, au moins partiellement, par les hydrocarbures résiduels du réservoir; la promotion du déplacement de la combustion à travers la zone de communication inter-puits afin de balayer la série de paires de puits; la régularisation de la série pour pressuriser la zone de communication inter-puits; la régularisation de la série de paires de puits afin deffectuer une extraction et de produire ce faisant une partie dextraction des hydrocarbures lourds; et la répétition cyclique de linjection de gaz comburant jusquaux étapes dextraction.
