Abstract
Linvention concerne un procédé de démarrage dune paire de puits pour EOR en établissant une communication fluidique entre les puits. Le procédé comprend les étapes consistant à fournir un système de distribution de chaleur à base de fluide dans chaque puits de ladite paire de puits et à faire circuler un fluide de démarrage non désasphalte chauffé dans chaque puits à une première température. Ensuite, en appliquant une différence de pression entre les puits pour favoriser le déplacement du fluide de démarrage dans une zone inter-puits et en contrôlant une viscosité du fluide de démarrage par lintermédiaire dune ou de la température et du contrôle de la concentration, afin dencourager le balayage hydraulique de linter-puits de la région dalésage et la transition du déplacement du fluide de démarrage à un processus dextraction de fluide de travail.
