Abstract
Linvention concerne des systèmes et des procédés de production dhydrocarbures de réservoirs. Un procédé offert comprend le forage dun premier puits horizontal sensiblement à proximité dune base dun réservoir et le forage dun second puits horizontal à un décalage horizontal du premier puits horizontal. Une communication fluidique est établie entre le premier puits horizontal et le second puits horizontal par des procédés de production cycliques. Un fluide de mobilisation est injecté dans le second puits horizontal et des fluides sont produits depuis le premier puits horizontal.
