Patent

CA 2665862

A method for treating a hydrocarbon containing formation is disclosed. The method includes providing heat to a first section of the formation with one or more first heaters in the first section. First hydrocarbons are heated in the first section such that at least some of the first hydrocarbons are mobilized. At least some of the mobilized first hydrocarbons are produced through a production well located in a second section of the formation. The second section is located substantially adjacent to the first section. A portion of the second section is provided some heat from the mobilized first hydrocarbons but is not conductively heated by heat from the first heaters. Heat is provided to the second section with one or more second heaters in the second section to further heat the second section.

L'invention concerne un procédé pour traiter une formation contenant des hydrocarbures. Le procédé comprend l'étape consistant à fournir de la chaleur à une première section de la formation à l'aide d'un ou de plusieurs premiers dispositifs de chauffage dans la première section. Des premiers hydrocarbures sont chauffés dans la première section, de telle sorte qu'au moins certains des premiers hydrocarbures sont mobilisés. Au moins certains des premiers hydrocarbures mobilisés sont produits par l'intermédiaire d'un puits de production situé dans une seconde section de la formation. La seconde section est localisée sensiblement adjacente à la première section. Une partie de la seconde section est dotée d'une certaine quantité de chaleur à partir des premiers hydrocarbures mobilisés, mais n'est pas chauffée par conduction par la chaleur provenant des premiers dispositifs de chauffage. De la chaleur est fournie à la seconde section à l'aide d'un ou de plusieurs seconds dispositifs de chauffage dans la seconde section, pour chauffer davantage la seconde section.
