Abstract
La présente invention concerne un procédé d'extraction d'hydrocarbures depuis un réservoir souterrain, comprenant les étapes consistant à préchauffer au moins une partie du réservoir par exposition à un rayonnement électromagnétique en provenance d'une source de rayonnement électromagnétique, à injecter, à travers au moins un puits d'injection, un solvant dans le réservoir afin de diluer les hydrocarbures présents dans la partie ainsi pré-traitée et à extraire à travers au moins un puits d'extraction un mélange d'hydrocarbures et de solvant. Un appareil d'extraction d'hydrocarbures depuis un réservoir souterrain comprend au moins une antenne radiofréquence permettant d'émettre de l'énergie radiofréquence dans un réservoir souterrain, une alimentation électrique servant à alimenter en électricité au moins une antenne radiofréquence, au moins un puits d'injection permettant l'injection d'un solvant depuis une source d'alimentation en solvant dans le réservoir souterrain afin d'abaisser la viscosité des hydrocarbures et au moins un puits d'extraction permettant l'extraction d'un mélange comprenant des hydrocarbures et un solvant depuis le réservoir souterrain.
