  • METHOD FOR PROVIDING EXTENDED RELEASE ANTIMICROBIAL IN HYDRAULIC FRACTURING APPLICATIONS
    Publication number: 20180086970
    Abstract: The present technology provides a method of inhibiting or eliminating bacteria encountered in an oil or gas producing operations, such as, for example, sulfur or acid producing bacteria or some other uncommon bacteria. The method involves delivering a slightly soluble antimicrobial composition (generally as a solid) to the formation in a proppant delivery stage of a hydraulic fracturing operation.

  • EFFERVESCENT BIOCIDE COMPOSITIONS FOR OILFIELD APPLICATIONS
    Publication number: 20080004189
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for using effervescent materials to deliver biocides to fluids. Generally, the effervescent material is a solid that includes an acid and a base that react in aqueous medium to produce a gas, such as carbon dioxide. The effervescent material can be tablets, powder, flakes, and the like. The effervescent material includes one or more biocides, which are dispersed in the fluid by effervescent action that occurs when the material is added to the fluid. The methods and compositions are particularly suited for treating oil field fluids such as fracturing fluids.
