  • Hydraulic Fracturing Fluid
    Publication number: 20180346802
    Abstract: A polymer and hydraulic fracturing fluid provide an improved ability to transport proppant. In an embodiment, a method of designing a hydraulic fracturing fluid includes calculating an elastic modulus of a polymer. The method also includes calculating a critical velocity of a hydraulic fracturing fluid comprising the polymer and proppant based on the elastic modulus of the polymer.

  • Completion Fluid with Friction Reduction
    Publication number: 20120247778
    Abstract: A method for reducing the friction forces between tubulars, for example coiled tubing in casing, is disclosed. The method includes mixing a selected surfactant and particles of TEFLON in oil, then adding the oil to water and pumping the mixture down the tubing. The mixture is particularly useful in coiled tubular drilling inside casing. The formulation has also been found to reduce corrosion on metal surfaces.
