METHOD FOR HYDROCARBON RESOURCE RECOVERY BY REPAIRING A FAILED HYDROCARBON RECOVERY ARRANGEMENT

摘要

A method of hydrocarbon resource recovery from a subterranean formation (41) may include forming a plurality of spaced apart injector/producer well pairs in the subterranean formation, each injector/producer well pair including a laterally extending producer well (43), and a laterally extending injector well (44) spaced thereabove. The method may include determining a failed injector/ producer well pair from among the plurality thereof. The method may further include repairing the failed injector/producer well pair by at least forming a repair well adjacent the failed injector/producer well pair, and applying radio frequency (RF) heating from the repair well to the subterranean formation adjacent the failed injector/producer well pair. The method may further include recovering hydrocarbon resources from the plurality of. injector/producer well pairs including the repaired injector/producer well.
