Abstract: A bridging material for a well treatment fluid that comprises a protein-based fibrous material and at least one additional material is provided. For example, the protein-based fibrous material can be soy protein fiber (SPF).The additional material is a lost circulation material. A process for treating a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation with minimal or no loss of treatment fluid into the formation is also provided. A system for drilling a wellbore from the surface into a subterranean formation with minimal or no loss of drilling fluid into the formation is also provided.

Abstract: An invert emulsion treatment fluid comprises: (A) an external phase, wherein the external phase comprises a hydrocarbon liquid; (B) an internal phase, wherein the internal phase comprises a hygroscopic liquid; (C) a suspending agent, wherein the suspending agent is a polymer, and wherein the polymer comprises urea linkages; and (D) a particulate, wherein the particulate has a density less than 3.5 g/cm3, wherein a test fluid consisting essentially of the external phase, the internal phase, the suspending agent, and the particulate, and in the same proportions as the treatment fluid, and after static aging for 2 months at a temperature of 200° F. (93.3° C.), has a 10 minute gel strength of at least 30 lb/100 ft2 (1,436 Pa) at a temperature of 120° F. (48.9° C.). A method of using the invert emulsion treatment fluid comprises: introducing the treatment fluid into a portion of a subterranean formation.
