A proppant pack may be formed in a fracture that extends from a wellbore formed in a subterranean formation and is accomplished through different methods.

摘要:
A method of injecting well treatment fluid including proppant and proppant-spacing filler material through a wellbore into the fracture, heterogeneously placing the proppant in the fracture in a plurality of proppant clusters or islands spaced apart by the material, and removing the filler material to form open channels around the pillars for fluid flow from the formation through the fracture toward the wellbore. The proppant and channelant can be segregated within the well treatment fluid, or segregated during placement in the fracture. The filler material can be dissolvable particles, initially acting as a filler material during placement of the proppant in the fracture, and later dissolving to leave the flow channels between the proppant pillars. The well treatment fluid can include extrametrical materials to provide reinforcement and consolidation of the proppant and/or to inhibit settling of the proppant.

A method of heterogeneous proppant placement in a subterranean fracture is disclosed. The method comprises injecting well treatment fluid including proppant (16) and proppant-spacing filler material (18) through a wellbore (10) into the fracture (20), heterogeneously placing the proppant in the fracture in a plurality of proppant clusters or islands (22) spaced apart by the material (24), and removing the filler material (24) to form open channels (26) around the pillars (28). The filler material can be dissolvable particles, initially acting as a consolidator during placement of the proppant in the fracture, and later dissolving to leave flow channels between the proppant pillars. The well treatment fluid can include extrametrical materials to provide reinforcement and consolidation of the proppant and, additionally or alternatively, to inhibit settling of the proppant in the treatment fluid.

摘要:
A technique facilitates treatment of a subterranean formation. A proppant and a proppant carrier fluid are delivered to a subterranean location for treatment of the formation. At the subterranean location, heterogeneities of proppant structures are generated with the proppant and the proppant carrier fluid. The heterogeneous proppant structures are then transported into the subterranean formation to improve conductivity.
摘要:
A method for producing minerals and, more specifically, for producing hydrocarbons, by hydraulic fracturing of the rock, can be used for the optimization of formation fracturing crack processing conditions. The method includes splitting a main stream of a propping agent suspension in a fluid at a mixer output into at least two flows having different volume delivery rates, and comingling the at least two flows before delivering to the hydraulic fracturing zone.

This invention relates to the production of minerals, more specifically, to the production of hydrocarbons, by hydraulic fracturing of the rock, and can be used for the optimization of formation fracturing crack processing conditions. Under this invention, the main stream of the propping agent suspension in the fluid at the mixer output is split into at least two flows having different volume delivery rates, and before the delivery to the hydraulic fracturing zone said flows are comingled.
