Abstract: Subterranean formation treatment methods incorporating a rheology model which enables prediction of fluid rheology properties during a treatment operation, where the foundation of the model is a description of the reaction chemistry which describes how the number of crosslinks and broken polymer linkages develops in time under the influence of crosslinkers, breakers, and/or thermally induced effects and pressure effects. In one aspect, when used as a tool for simulating the fluid viscosity, the model can help optimizing the fluid design and optional breaker schedule for a hydraulic fracturing treatment.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for treating a subterranean formation including forming a first fluid comprising low pH, introducing the first fluid into a subterranean formation, forming a second fluid comprising high pH, and introducing the second fluid into the formation. Apparatus and method for treating a subterranean formation including introducing a acidizing fluid into a subterranean formation, introducing an inert spacer into the formation, introducing an alkaline fluid into the formation, and introducing a brine or a solvent overflush fluid.
