摘要:
The present invention is directed to mixture comprising a cross-linked scale control agent particle and a porous insoluble material. The scale control agent is cross-linked by a crosslinker. The present invention is further directed to mixtures comprising more than one cross-linked active agents; the active agent may be a combination of a scale control agent and an organic-based crystalline inhibitor. The present invention is also directed to a method for producing the particles according to the present invention and methods for performing a mechanical fracturing operation.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a two-step process to produce oil or gas from a subterranean formation wherein in a first step the subterranean formation is treated with an aqueous composition containing a chelating agent selected from the group of glutamic acid N,N-di-acetic acid or a salt thereof (GLDA), aspartic acid N,N-diacetic acid or a salt thereof (ASDA), methylglycine N,N-diacetic acid or a salt thereof (MGDA), and N-hydroxyethyl ethylenediamine N,N′,N′-triacetic acid or a salt thereof (HEDTA) and wherein, in a next step, in the outlet streams from the subterranean formation the aqueous phase is separated from the non-aqueous phase.

Embodiments relate to a proppant particle or a solid article that includes a proppant particle/solid article and one or more coatings on an outer surface of the proppant particle/solid article including one or more well treatment agents and one or more controlled release polymer resins. Each well treatment agent is at least one selected from the group of a scale inhibitor, a wax inhibitor, a pour point depressant, asphaltene inhibitor, an asphaltene dispersant, a corrosion inhibitor, a biocide, a viscosity modifier, and a de emulsifier. Each controlled release polymer resin is at least one selected from the group of a polyurethane based resin, an epoxy resin, a phenolic resin, and a furan resin.
摘要:
Method and system for removal of heavy metal ions from a rich hydrate inhibitor stream, wherein the method comprises a) adding a selective heavy metal reactant to the rich hydrate inhibitor stream, forming a fluid stream comprising heavy metal salt particles, b) separating the obtained fluid stream in three streams a hydrocarbon stream, a recovered rich hydrate inhibitor stream, and a slurry comprising the heavy metal salt particles, c) separating remaining hydrate inhibitor from the slurry thereby obtaining a concentrated rest comprising the heavy metal salt particles.
摘要:
Compositions comprise nonionic fluorinated polymeric surfactants and solvent. The solvent comprises: at least one of a polyol or polyol ether, wherein the polyol and polyol ether have from 2 to 25 carbon atoms; and at least one monohydroxy alcohol, ether, or ketone having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or a mixture thereof, wherein the solvent is capable of at least one of solubilizing or displacing brine or condensate in the hydrocarbon-bearing clastic formation. Embodiments of the compositions are useful in recovery of hydrocarbons from hydrocarbon-bearing clastic formations that contain brine and/or condensate.
摘要:
Compositions containing a mixture of microcapsules and a bulk polymer, where the microcapsules have an oil field chemical contained within the microcapsules are described. The microcapsules can be present in a variety of configurations. The microcapsules contain a core or a micro-matrix containing the oil field chemicals. The core or micro-matrix can be surrounded by one or more polymeric shells, where each shell contains at least one polymer that affects the release of the oil field chemical from the composition. The compositions provide for the sustained release of an oil field chemical into fluid in an oil field reservoir over long periods of time. Methods of making the compositions and articles containing the compositions are described. Methods of tracing the movement of fluid in a hydrocarbon reservoir using the compositions, and methods of providing for the sustained release of oil field chemicals are also described.
摘要:
A method of treating a subterranean formation comprises forming a storable aqueous suspension comprising a carrier fluid, a superabsorbent polymer, a proppant the proppant being suspended in the carrier fluid as a substantially perfectly supported particulate; diluting the storable aqueous suspension in-line to a desired concentration; and introducing the diluted storable aqueous suspension into the subterranean formation. A sand control method is also disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention generally relates to one or more compositions and methods for inhibiting the formation of gas hydrate agglomerates in a fluid. The fluid may be contained, for example, in an oil or gas pipeline or refinery.
