Abstract

Un procédé et des systèmes dutilisation dun solvant non volatil pour récupérer du pétrole lourd sont décrits. Selon un procédé, un solvant comprenant un composant non volatil est injecté dans le réservoir. Un fluide de mobilisation est injecté dans le réservoir. Le fluide est produit dans le réservoir et comprend le solvant, le fluide de mobilisation et les hydrocarbures du réservoir.
