  • A Method Of Gravel Packing With Oil-Based Carrier Fluid
    Publication number: 20050139354
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for gravel packing a hole in a subterranean formation including the step of pumping into the hole a gravel pack composition comprising gravel and a carrier fluid comprising a brine-in-oil emulsion, said emulsion being stabilized by an emulsifier based on at least one sorbitan fatty acid ester presenting a shoulder peak before the peak depicted to be the monomer peak when analyzed by gel permeation chromatography. The emulsifiers that exhibit the shoulder exhibit good stability without causing formation damage.

  • Method of Completing Poorly Consolidated Formations
    Publication number: 20050098315
    Abstract: It is proposed a method for completing an unconsolidated interval, including particulates, in a subterranean formation, including a consolidation steps. The consolidation step is performed by injection of an aqueous solution of colloidal particles with a pH modifier and/or an ionic-strength modifier. A hard gel is formed that holds the particulates together. The consolidation is followed by hydraulic fracturing. Diversion towards area of less permeability may be enhanced by the use of micrometric particles.
