摘要:
High density, thermally stable, brine-based well fluids and methods of using the same are disclosed. In one embodiment a well fluid including water and a salt, the salt including at least one formate salt, wherein the weight-to-volume ratio of the well fluid is within the range of at least 120% to about 400% is disclosed. In another embodiment, a well fluid including water, a viscosifying agent, and a salt, the salt including at least one formate salt, wherein the weight-to-volume ratio of the well fluid is within the range of at least 120% to about 400% is disclosed. A method of treating a well using a well fluid, wherein the well fluid includes water and a salt, the salt including at least one formate salt, wherein the weight-to-volume ratio of the well fluid is within the range of at least 120% to about 400% is also disclosed.
摘要:
A method of treating a well including injecting a thermally stable, substantially water-free well-treating fluid into the well, wherein the well-treating fluid comprises a polymer, a glycol compound, and a salt is disclosed. In another embodiment, a thermally stable, substantially water-free well fluid including a polymer, a diol compound, and a salt is disclosed.
摘要:
A method of injection of a higher density fluid into the top of the annulus of a well while lower density fluid is withdrawn from the top of the annulus of the well, wherein the higher density fluid has a composition such that it will drop through the lower density fluid without dispersing therein, thus flowing into the deeper reaches of the annulus and not short circuiting through the top of the annulus to the point from which the lower density fluid is intended to be withdrawn. A method of injection of a higher density fluid into the top of the annulus of a well without simultaneously withdrawing a lower density fluid from the top of the annulus of the well, wherein the higher density fluid has a composition such that it will drop through the lower density fluid without dispersing therein, thus flowing into the deeper reaches of the annulus so that when the pressure induced in the annulus as a result of this injection is subsequently bled off, principally the lower density fluid will be that which is withdrawn.
摘要:
In a method of gravel packing a wellbore in a subterranean formation, the wellbore having a cased section and an uncased section, the method may include pumping into the wellbore a gravel pack composition having gravel and a carrier fluid, where the carrier fluid includes an oleaginous fluid and an inorganic solid aggregator material.
