    摘要: Methods and apparatus of embodiments of the invention relate to a system for treating a subterranean formation including mixing equipment to form a fluid comprising sodium hypochlorite and sodium diacetate; and pumps and a tubular to introduce the fluid into the subterranean formation, wherein a surface of the subterranean formation contains at least 15 percent less microorganisms than if no sodium hypochlorite were in the fluid. Methods and apparatus of embodiments of the invention relate to a method of producing a petroleum product from a wellbore including using a well treatment system comprising mixing equipment, pumps, and a tubular, forming a fluid comprising sodium hypochlorite and sodium diacetate; and introducing the fluid to the well treatment system to achieve a reduced population of microorganisms in the system. Methods and apparatus of embodiments of the invention relate to a system, comprising: a subterranean formation, a well treatment apparatus comprising mixing equipment, pumps, and a tubular, and a fluid comprising sodium hypochlorite and sodium diacetate to achieve a reduced population of microorganisms in the system. Methods and apparatus of embodiments of the invention relate to a method for treating a subterranean formation, comprising forming a fluid comprising sodium hypochlorite, a buffer, and a polymer; introducing the fluid to a surface of a subterranean formation; and decreasing a population of microorganisms, wherein the surface of the subterranean formation contains at least 15 percent less microorganisms than if no sodium hypochlorite were in the fluid, and wherein the fluid exhibits a pH of about 4.0 to about 7.5. Methods and apparatus of embodiments of the invention relate to a method for treating a subterranean formation, comprising forming a fluid comprising sodium hypochlorite and sodium diacetate; and introducing the fluid to a subterranean formation, wherein forming the fluid does not include introducing an acid, and wherein forming the fluid does not include forming a precipitate.

    摘要: The invention provides a method. The method injects into a wellbore, a fluid comprising at least one of an acrylamide polymer and an acrylamide copolymer, and at least one of an oxidizing agent and a radical initiator; and allows viscosity of the fluid to increase for a first period of time; and subsequently, allows viscosity of the fluid to decrease for a second period of time. In a further aspect the invention provides a fluid for use in a well within a subterranean formation penetrated by a wellbore. The fluid is in a first embodiment, made of an acrylamide polymer and/or copolymer and an oxidizing agent or radical initiator, wherein concentration of the oxidizing agent or radical initiator is such that the fluid increases its viscosity for a period of time and after said period of time decreases its viscosity. The fluid is in a second embodiment, made of an acrylamide polymer and/or copolymer and an oxidizing agent or radical initiator, wherein the oxidizing agent or radical initiator is such that the fluid increases its viscosity for a period of time and after said period of time decreases its viscosity.

    摘要: Methods for reducing a viscosity of a viscosified fluid include reacting, such as by depolymerizing and/or decomposing, a polymeric material of the viscosified fluid with a breaking agent including one or more organic peroxide breakers having a structural feature selected from a cyclic peroxide segment and/or multiple linear peroxide moieties per molecule. The methods of treating the subterranean are provided that include reacting, such as by depolymerizing and/or decomposing, a polymeric material of a viscosified treatment fluid with one or more organic peroxide breakers having a structural feature selected from cyclic peroxide segment and/or multiple linear peroxide moieties per molecule to facilitate breaking of the viscosified treatment fluid after the fracturing or treatment is finished.
