    摘要: Perforations and cracks in wellbore liners or casings may be temporarily or permanently covered by a radially-expansible, coiled sleeve member formed by a sheet of elastically-deflectable material such as stainless steel which is coiled and placed in a cylinder which may be conveyed into a well to a working position for deployment of the sleeve to expand into engagement with the casing wall to block the perforations or cracks. The cylinder includes a sleeve ejecting piston which may be urged to rapidly eject the sleeve from the cylinder by pressure fluid conveyed to the cylinder by coilable tubing or by a gas-generating charge material electrically connected to an E-line which also may be used to deploy the cylinder into its working position in the well.

    摘要: Weakly consolidated hydrocarbon fluid bearing earth formation zones having a cohesive strength of about 500 psi or less are produced by completing a well penetrating the zone and initiating production of solids laden fluid from the zone through the well to generate a near wellbore cavity. Production of solids laden fluid is continued until the cavity grows to a point wherein the fluid velocity across the cavity face decreases to a value below the solids particulate transport velocity wherein continued production of fluid will result in a very low or negligible rate of production of solids particulates. Solids particulates are separated from the produced mixture at the surface, the solids are treated to reduce the particle size and reinjected in a slurry into a disposal well for disposal in a hydraulically fractured or disaggregated formation zone remote from the production zone. Cavity growth and production may be carried out by throttling a free flowing well or by artificial lift, preferably utilizing power fluid and a hydraulic jet pump or gas lift techniques.

    摘要: Fractures are initiated or extended into fluid producing earth formations from a well by providing a reservoir of high pressure gas at the earth's surface together with a flow control valve or a frangible closure, such as a shear disk, interposed in a conduit connecting the reservoir to the well. The well is precharged with high pressure gas at a pressure less than or about the same as the reservoir gas pressure. Fracture initiation and/or extension may be carried out by firing the perforation gun and opening the flow control valve between the reservoir and the wellhead in timed relation or by allowing a pressure drop across a shear disk interposed between the reservoir and the wellhead to effect rupture of the shear disk to release the reservoir charge. In wells where perforations are already formed, a shear disk or other frangible closure in the well tubing may be ruptured to release a precharge of high pressure gas in the tubing string to begin fracture formation or extension followed by flow of high pressure gas discharged from the reservoir to continue the fracture initiation or extension.

    摘要: Hydraulic fractures are initiated or extended into earth formations from a first well by filling a space within the wellbore and a tubing string extending within the well with a fracturing fluid, placing the first well in fluid flow communication with a tubing string extending within a second well and increasing the pressure of fluid in the respective tubing strings sufficient to initiate or extend the fracture. The second well serves as an accumulator for accumulating a sufficient charge of pressure fluid, such as gas, to drive the fracturing fluid in the first well into the formation to a suitable extent.

    摘要: Gas blowouts in wells are controlled by injecting a cohesive aqueous gel composition of hydroxypropyl guar gum, a borate salt cross-linking agent and a weighting agent such as silica flour, barite, hematite or iron oxide. The kill fluid is less susceptible to atomization than weighted drilling fluids, is readily available in most oil and gas field operations and may be rapidly prepared in quantities suitable for injecting into a well to control a gas blowout.

    摘要: Slurries of particulate solids wastes are injected into a disaggregated earth formation through an injection well by predetermining the formation to have a compressive stress in a range of about 300 psi to 2500 psi, a porosity of at least about twenty percent (20%) and disposed between overburden and underburden layers which have a substantially lower permeability than the disposal zone. The disposal zone is disaggregated or "liquified" by injecting substantially solids-free liquid followed by injection of the solids-laden slurry.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method for enhancing the production of hydrocarbons from a subterranean formation. A hydrocarbon bearing formation, surrounding a well bore, is fractured with a fracturing fluid to create one or more fractures in the formation. The formation includes a higher permeability zone and a lower permeability zone with the fractures extending across both the higher and lower permeability zones. The lower permeability zone may contain a substantially higher concentration of hydrocarbons, oil and gas, than does the higher permeability zone which may generally be depleted of hydrocarbons. Proppant is then selectively positioned, such as by allowing the proppant to “float” in a carrier fluid to the top of the fracture, with a majority of the proppant being positioned in the lower permeability zone. The fracture is allowed to close about the proppant to create at least one high conductivity channel in the lower permeability zone.
