A method of producing hydrocarbons from a subterranean formation comprising the steps of: forming a well having a horizontal section located between the midpoint and the bottom of the formation and having a raised end; and continuously injecting a fluid through said raised end to induce hydrocarbons to flow towards the horizontal section in response to gravity drainage while continuously producing hydrocarbons through the horizontal section of the well- bore, so that the injection of fluids occurs simultaneously with the production of hydrocarbons.
L'invention concerne un procédé de production d'hydrocarbures à partir d'une formation souterraine, qui consiste à: former un puits dont la section horizontale se situe entre le point médian et le bas de la formation et présentant une extrémité verticale; injecter en continu un fluide dans ladite extrémité verticale de sorte que les hydrocarbures s'écoulent vers la section horizontale en réponse au drainage par gravité, les hydrocarbures étant produits en continu par la section horizontale du puits de forage de sorte que l'injection de fluides s'effectue en même temps que la production d'hydrocarbures.
