摘要： Methods of controlling the rates of release of chemical additives into treating fluids are provided by the present invention. The methods are basically comprised of causing a chemical additive in liquid form to be absorbed into a porous solid material whereby the chemical additive is encapsulated thereby and when the resulting encapsulated chemical additive is combined with the treating fluid, the chemical additive is slowly released into the treating fluid. After being encapsulated, the liquid chemical additive is combined with the treating fluid and the treating fluid containing the encapsulated chemical additive is introduced into a well.

摘要： Encapsulated water soluble chemicals for use in controlled time release applications, methods of encapsulating the chemicals and methods of using the encapsulated chemicals are provided. The methods of encapsulating the chemicals are basically comprised of forming a first coating of a dry hydrophobic film forming material or a sparingly soluble material which provides a dry shield on the chemical and then forming a second coating of a porous cross-linked hydrophilic polymer on the first coating which prevents the substantial dissolution of the resulting encapsulated chemical for a selected period of time.

摘要： Methods and compositions are provided for making a solid material for controlling the release of at least one reactant of an exothermic reaction into a carrier fluid. The method comprises the steps of: (a) mixing a reactant with a polymeric material, wherein the polymeric material is capable of being hydrated, and water, wherein the proportion of water is insufficient to substantially hydrate the polymeric material but is sufficient to make the polymeric material sticky to help bind the reactant into a matrix; and (b) drying the mixture. According to a similar aspect, methods and compositions are provided for making a solid material for use in controlling the release of a catalyst of an exothermic reaction into a carrier fluid for increasing the temperature of a section of conduit used for the production or transmission of hydrocarbon. According to other aspects, the reactant or catalyst is mixed with a binder.

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.
