Abstract: A method is taught for producing hydrocarbons from a reservoir by drilling two or more wells located proximal a bottom of said reservoir. The method comprises initiating one or more high-mobility zones connecting said wells along the bottom of the reservoir and producing the reservoir from the bottom of said reservoir upwards.
Abstract: A method is taught of creating one or more targeted fractures in a subterranean formation. The method comprises the steps of drilling and completing two wells in the formation, conditioning said wells to create a stress condition favorable for forming a fracture zone connecting said two wells and initiating and propagating the fracture zone in said formation.
