摘要: The present invention relates generally to a system and method for enhancing recovery process employing one or more substantially horizontal wellbores. More particularly, the wellbores by providing zone of increased permeability in hydrocarbon reservoir facilitate vertical movement flowable materials through thereby enhance process. In some embodiments, comprises impediments.
