摘要:
Of the many methods and compositions provided by this invention, one method a method of treating a subterranean formation, comprising: providing a treatment fluid comprising: an aqueous base fluid and a reaction product of a gelling agent comprising a copolymer or salt thereof comprising N-[tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl]acrylamide, 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid or a salt thereof, and acrylamide; and a crosslinking agent; and introducing the treatment fluid into a subterranean formation.
摘要:
Methods of providing a cementing fluid comprising an aqueous liquid, a hydraulic cement, and a cement suspending agent that comprises a crosslinked particulate formed by a reaction comprising a first monofunctional monomer, a primary crosslinker, and a secondary crosslinker; placing the cementing fluid in a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation; and allowing the cementing fluid to set therein.
摘要:
In one embodiment, the present invention provides a fluid comprising: an aqueous base fluid; and a gelling agent that comprises a polymerizable polycarboxylic acid and that is at least partially crosslinked by a crosslinking reaction comprising a crosslinking agent.
摘要:
Provided are treatment fluids that comprise a base fluid and an orthoester-based surfactant. In some instances, the treatment fluid may have a pH of about 8.5 or greater. Also provided are emulsified treatment fluids that comprise an oleaginous phase, an aqueous phase having a pH of about 8.5 or greater, and an orthoester-based surfactant. Methods of using the treatment fluid and methods of facilitating flow through a conduit also are provided.
摘要:
The present disclosure addressed apparatus and methods for forming an annular isolator in a borehole after installation of production tubing. Annular seal means are carried in or on production tubing as it is run into a borehole. In conjunction with expansion of the tubing, the seal is deployed to form an annular isolator. An inflatable element carried on the tubing may be inflated with a fluid carried in the tubing and forced into the inflatable element during expansion of the tubing. Reactive chemicals may be carried in the tubing and injected into the annulus to react with each other and ambient fluids to increase in volume and harden into an annular seal. An elastomeric sleeve, ring or band carried on the tubing may be expanded into contact with a borehole wall and may have its radial dimension increased in conjunction with tubing expansion to form an annular isolator.

The present invention relates to emulsion compositions and associated methods. More particularly, the present invention relates to gelled invert emulsion compositions and their associated methods of use and preparation. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a method of treating a portion of a subterranean formation comprising the steps of: providing a gelled invert emulsion composition that comprises an oleaginous continuous phase, a discontinuous phase, and a gelling agent; and treating a portion of the subterranean formation. The present invention also provides methods of increasing the viscosity of an invert emulsion composition, methods of making gelled invert emulsion compositions, methods of providing some degree of sand control to portions of subterranean formations, methods of fracturing a portion of a subterranean formation, and gelled invert emulsion compositions.
