摘要:
A method of testing the performance of a stimulation fluid by placing a sample of the stimulation fluid or a precursor thereof into the body of a downhole tool, positioning the tool in juxtaposition with a rock face at a downhole location, forming a sealing contact between the rock face and the tool; and injecting the sample into the rock face while monitoring pressure and/or flow rates during the injection of the sample into and/or production of formation fluid from the rock face to derive a measure of the effectiveness of the stimulation fluid in creating openings in the rock face.

The invention relates to an expandable liner for completing a hole in an underground formation, the liner being constituted by a spiral-wound strip with the longitudinal edges of the strip having complementary touching profiles so that after it has been expanded, the liner is circular in section. The invention also provides a method of completing a well finally or temporarily by installing a spiral-wound liner of the invention, expanding it, and optionally cementing it.
