... Abstract Guar based hydraulic fracturing fluids is the most commonly utilized fracturing fluids in oil field. Whereas, it tends to lead to formation damage as a result of adsorption of guar. The adsorption behavior of guar was investigated. The approach for reducing the adsorption was explored...

... of fracturing fluid used. The objective of this paper is to perform an experimental study to determine the role of fracturing fluid on the breakdown pressure of tight sandstone rocks. The dimensions of the samples are 2 in. (diameter) by 2 in. (length). A hole of 0.25-in. in diameter and 0.75-in. length...

... demonstrates the adverse effect of water on fracture conductivity in shale formations, through shale softening and proppant embedment mechanisms. The different approaches to select the fracturing fluid additives for an improved fracture conductivity are summarized in this review. To minimize the damage...

... fluid invades the pay zone. This phenomenon reduces the well's potential productivity and is more potential productivity and is more pronounced in low permeability gas pronounced in low permeability gas reservoirs. Efficient clean-up for this fracturing fluid is thus essential in gas reservoirs...

... in the literature for proppant pack consolidation. However, most of these resins are incompatible with the aqueous fracturing fluids. This warrants for special precautions to be undertaken during pumping of the treatment to avoid formation damage. This paper discusses a new chemistry that has been developed...

... Abstract Seawater-based fracturing fluids are used to generate a stable crosslinked fracturing fluid for higher formation temperatures primarily using two types of guar derivatives—HPG and CMHPG. Results are compared to other seawater-based fracturing fluid data in the literature, as well...

... in the presence of synthetic and crude oils. Currently available foam-based fracturing fluid systems in the industry have temperature limitations to 300°F. The crosslinked gelled foam has a better temperature range than the viscoelastic foam fluid system, whereas non-crosslinked biopolymer-based foam fluid showed...

... carried out in 6 aspects. (1) Because the filtration of CO 2 fracturing fluid is strong, the permeability of target reservoir should be lower than 5md in order to ensure stimulation effect of remote area. (2) CO 2 can react with water and divalent metal ions to produce carbonate sediments to block...
