Novel slick water fracturing fluid compositions are disclosed, where the compositions including with slick water fracturing compositions including a partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide polymer system within invert emulsion and an effective amount of a friction reducer booster system, where the effective amount is sufficient to reduce a drag friction of the composition by an additional amount of at least 5% in the first 30 seconds of evaluation in high salinity and low temperature environments.
摘要:
Epoxy-based, temperature specific zonal isolation compositions are disclosed and methods for isolating zones in borehole of oil and gas wells using the compositions, where the composition is adjusted for use in high-temperature, mid-temperature and low-temperature applications.
摘要:
Hydrolyzed nitrilotriacetonitrile compositions are disclosed prepared by a method characterized by a one-shot addition of an amount of nitrilotriacetonitrile to a solution containing an acid catalyst, where the reaction is complete in a time period of less than an hour. The method is also characterized by adjusting the pH of the reaction mixture to a pH of at least 8. The method is also characterized by oxidatively removing free cyanide to a desired low level through the addition of an oxidizing agent the produces environmentally benign by-products to the crude hydrolyzed NTAN to form hydrolyzed NTAN compositions having minimized, negligible, or substantially no free cyanide levels.
摘要:
Apparatus and compositions for reducing the viscosity of a gelled fluid is provided. In one embodiment, a viscosity reducing microbe is disposed in a capsule and added to the gelled fluid. The gelled fluid may include a thickening agent adapted to increase its viscosity. Upon release from the capsule, the microbe begins to digest the thickening agent in the gelled fluid and/or releases enzymes that that breakdown the thickening agent.
摘要:
New heavy phosphate brines are disclosed, where the water soluble phosphate brines include two or more metal phosphate. Methods for making and using the heavy phosphate brines in drilling, completion, and fracturing operations are also disclosed.
摘要:
A method for treating solid materials is disclosed, where the treating compositions coats surfaces or portions of surfaces of the solid materials changing an aggregation or agglomeration propensity of the materials. Treating composition and treated solid materials are also disclosed. The methods and treated materials are ideally suited for oil field applications.
摘要:
An assembly and methods for constructing a MONOWELL include a monodiameter casing disposed in a monodiameter wellbore having diametric efficiency with a monobore production delivery system disposed within the monodiameter casing. An assembly for constructing a monodiameter wellbore includes a bottomhole assembly having a overgauge hole drilling member, a directional steering assembly, a measurement while drilling tool, and a logging while drilling tool; a work string attached to the bottomhole assembly and extending to the surface; drilling fluids flowing through the work string and bottomhole assembly; chemical casing casing the borehole; expandable casing disposed in the wellbore; and a sealing composition disposed between the expandable casing and the wellbore.
摘要:
A hydrocarbon drilling fluid system is disclosed including a hydrocarbon fluid and a foaming composition, where the foaming composition includes a polymer, a gelling agent and its cross-linking agent, an optional foaming agent, or mixtures or combinations thereof. Uses of this drilling fluid system in a variety of downhole application are also disclosed.
