A system and method for extracting a resource from a reservoir repeatedly alternates between injecting a fluid and injecting a gas into the reservoir. A rate and/or an amount of each of the fluid and the gas that is injected into the reservoir is defined by a first fluid-and-gas ratio function that designates different ratios as a function of time. The ratios designate the rate and/or the amount of the fluid that is injected into the reservoir to the rate and/or the amount of the gas that is injected into the reservoir. The rate and/or the amount at which the fluid and/or the gas is injected into the reservoir is changed according to the ratios designated by the first fluid-and-gas ratio function as time progresses.
