Abstract
► We proposed a hybrid process of electrical heating and solvent injection to enhance heavy oil and bitumen production. ► The mechanisms of enhanced heavy oil recovery of this process are discussed through numerical simulation. ► Numerical simulation suggested that this process have much better performance than the solvent injection alone. ► This method is suitable for many oil reservoirs in western Canada.
