Abstract
L'invention concerne un procédé de mobilisation d'hydrocarbures in situ, qui consiste : à sélectionner un solvant de travail pour un processus d'extraction par drainage par gravité in situ par condensation ; à injecter le solvant de travail sous la forme d'un liquide dans une formation contenant des hydrocarbures afin de créer un chemin d'écoulement de drainage par gravité s'étendant vers un puits de production à travers une partie de la formation ; et à passer dans des conditions de condensation in situ avec ledit solvant de travail à l'intérieur de ladite formation pour créer une chambre d'extraction au-dessus dudit chemin d'écoulement de drainage par gravité.
