Abstract
Des techniques sont décrites pour la récupération dhydrocarbures dune région stratifiée, comme une stratification hétérolithique inclinée (IHS), qui comprend des zones productrices définies entre des couches de faible perméabilité. Certaines techniques comprennent la fourniture dun puits sétendant dans la région stratifiée et utilisé pour injecter un fluide de mobilisation, et la production subséquente des hydrocarbures mobilisés. Une paire de puits de drainage par gravité au moyen de vapeur (SAGD) peuvent être à nouveau réalisés pour permettre linjection et la production dans les segments de puits inclinés passant à travers la région stratifiée. Certaines techniques comprennent lutilisation du SAGD dans une zone productrice principale sous une zone IHS et lopération subséquente dun puits vertical sétendant de la surface à une région IHS et supérieure à la zone productrice principale pour injecter un gaz non condensable dans lIHS pour former une zone enrichie de gaz non condensable dans lIHS et fournir un drainage de lIHS à la zone productrice principale.
