Abstract
Il est décrit un procédé servant à récupérer le bitume à partir dun réservoir enterré ayant un puits dinjection horizontal et un puits de production horizontal situé sous le puits dinjection. Le procédé comprend une première étape dans le cadre de laquelle un solvant vaporisé est injecté par lintermédiaire du puits dinjection à une première pression qui est supérieure à la condition de pression initiale du réservoir. Il comprend également une deuxième étape dans le cadre de laquelle le solvant est injecté par lintermédiaire du puits dinjection à une deuxième pression inférieure à la première pression. Chacune de ces étapes peut aussi comprendre le réchauffement du puits dinjection, la condensation du solvant au site dune interface dextraction afin de chauffer et dissoudre le bitume et la récupération des fluides produits qui comprennent au moins du bitume et du solvant provenant du puits de production.
