  • Patent number: 11193356
    Abstract: The provided method allows optimizing the fracturing design (frac design) while taking into account the two-dimensional modelling of the transport processes in the fracture. The generation of the fracturing design in a well comprises the steps of: obtaining data on hydraulic fracturing including the proppant pumping schedule and the fibre pumping schedule for various types of fibres; generating a degradation matrix for the various types of fibres; generating possible options of the hydraulic fracturing operation according to the fibre type and pumping schedule. Moreover, the method of hydraulic fracturing, which comprises generating a schedule of fracturing in a well, preparing a fracturing fluid containing carrier fluid, proppant, additives, and fibres, and pumping the fracturing fluid into the formation through the well following the selected (optimal) option of the fracturing operation, is provided.

  • Publication number: 20170247997
    Abstract: A method of treating a subterranean formation from a well, the method which comprises preparing a proppant slurry which comprises (a) proppant particles and (b) a first carrier fluid; preparing a proppant free injection liquid which comprises a second carrier fluid wherein the first and second carrier fluids are immiscible and wherein no proppant is intentionally added to the proppant free injection liquid; and injecting the proppant slurry and the proppant free injection liquid into the formation, is provided.
