Abstract: Drag reducing slurries and methods of making and using the same are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a drag reducing slurry includes polymer particles having drag reducing properties, each particle having a surface that has at least two different polarities, a first surfactant, a second surfactant, a rheological modifier, a defoamer, a pH modifier, and a carrier fluid, wherein the first surfactant has a higher polarity than the second surfactant. In some embodiments, the slurry has a low shear viscosity, measured at 1 Hz, of less than 10,000 centipoise (cP), a tan ? of less than or equal to 0.5, a complex viscosity less than 100,000 mP·s, and a stability of at least 90 days.
