Abstract

Systems and methods for downhole separation of water from hydrocarbons in a wellbore can include a first seal limiting flow of fluids downhole in the wellbore and a second seal limiting flow of fluids uphole in the wellbore. A hydrocarbon separator is positioned to receive fluids present in the wellbore between the first seal and the second seal and discharge hydrocarbons into the wellbore uphole of the second seal. A liquid collection vessel receives water discharged by the hydrocarbon separator. A conduit extends downhole from the liquid collection vessel through the first seal and the second seal. A pump installed with the conduit is operable to pump fluids from liquid collection vessel downhole and out of the wellbore.
