Abstract
Des procédés de récupération du bitume dun réservoir sont décrits. Les procédés consistent à utiliser une première paire de puits dinjection-production selon un premier procédé de drainage par gravité pour former une première chambre de drainage par gravité et à utiliser une seconde paire de puits dinjection-production selon un second procédé de drainage par gravité pour former une seconde chambre de drainage par gravité. Un puits intercalaire est prévu dans une région non balayée entre la première chambre de drainage par gravité et la seconde chambre de drainage par gravité, et le puits intercalaire est utilisé sous un procédé cyclique utilisant un fluide mobilisateur pour former une région mobilisée du puits intercalaire. Le puits intercalaire est ensuite utilisé selon un procédé dinondation utilisant un fluide dentraînement pour déplacer du bitume dans la région mobilisée vers les premier et second puits de production de la première paire de puits dinjection-production et de la seconde paire de puits dinjection-production. Le bitume est ensuite recouvré.
