| 20090084554 | Drilling and Fracturing Fluid - A method of fracturing a subterranean formation while drilling a well includes the steps of preparing a fluid useful for drilling a wellbore into the formation; drilling the wellbore into the formation with the fluid; acidizing the fluid such that the acid soluble additive is degraded; and fracturing the formation with the fluid in the wellbore to create a channel in the formation. | 04-02-2009 |
| 20100132950 | WATER TRANSFER SYSTEM - A method of treating a hydrocarbon reservoir that is penetrated by a well is disclosed, the method comprising injecting into the well a water transfer system comprising liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and an alcohol that is at least partially water and liquefied petroleum gas soluble. Further, a method of treating a hydrocarbon reservoir is disclosed, the method comprising introducing into the hydrocarbon reservoir a combination of LPG and a solvent system that is at least partially liquefied petroleum gas and water soluble. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20130161016 | LIQUIFIED PETROLEUM GAS FRACTURING SYSTEM - A fracturing system for a well, in which a stream of LPG, a mixture of propane and butane, is injected into the well at frac pressure. Proppant is supplied into the LPG stream, and carried by the LPG mix into the formation. Inert gas such as nitrogen is used for purging system components of LPG, and to help protect against risk of explosion. Nitrogen may also be added to the LPG mix during a frac of shale gas or coal gas formations. | 06-27-2013 |
| 20130312976 | METHODS FOR USING LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS FOR WELL STIMULATION - A method for fraccing oil or gas wells to recover natural gas. Liquefied natural gas is vaporized to form a foam or dense fluid. The foam or dense fluid is compressed to high pressures. The high pressure natural gas foam or dense fluid is fed into the oil or gas well and once the well is pressurized to a pre-determined pressure and fracturing has begun, the flow of the foam or dense fluid is stopped. After a suitable period for fracturing to occur, the flow is reversed and the natural gas from the well and the foam or dense fluid fracturing fluid is recovered. The recovered and produced natural gas can be treated and made ready for use in other applications. | 11-28-2013 |
| 20140076572 | Thickened viscoelastic fluids and uses thereof - The present invention generally relates to a viscoelastic fluids, thickened acid compositions and the like and to methods of using said gelled compositions. The thickened compositions of the present invention can usefully be employed in methods of stimulating and/or modifying the permeability of underground formations, in drilling fluids, completion fluids, workover fluids, acidizing fluids, fracturing, gravel packing and the like. | 03-20-2014 |
| 20140116711 | Expanded Wellbore Servicing Materials and Methods of Making and Using Same - A method of servicing a wellbore in a subterranean formation comprising placing a wellbore servicing fluid comprising a resin-loaded expanded material into a wellbore wherein a resin is released from the resin-loaded expanded material in situ within the wellbore or subterranean formation. A wellbore treatment composition comprising a resin-loaded expanded material wherein the expanded material comprises polylactide and the resin material comprises a high-temperature epoxy-based resin. | 05-01-2014 |
| 20140144643 | WATER-IN-OIL EMULSION COMPOSITION AND METHOD OF TREATING SUBTERRANEAN FORMATION USING SAME - A method of treating a portion of a subterranean formation that includes: providing a water-in-oil emulsion, inverting the water-in-oil emulsion to form a friction reducing treatment solution, and introducing the treatment solution into the portion of the subterranean formation. The water-in-oil emulsion has an oil phase, an aqueous phase and surfactants. The oil phase (O) and an aqueous phase (A) are present at an O/A ratio of from about 1:8 to about 10:1. The oil phase is present as a continuous phase and contains an inert hydrophobic liquid. The aqueous phase is present as a dispersed phase of distinct particles in the oil phase and includes water and a water soluble polymer. The water soluble polymer makes up from 10 to 25 weight percent of the water-in-oil emulsion. The water-in-oil emulsion is inverted by adding it to water to form a friction reducing treatment solution. | 05-29-2014 |
| 20140305651 | Hydraulic Fracturing Composition - The invention relates to subterranean treatment fluids, and more particularly for hydraulic fracturing formulations, comprising a low viscosity hydrocarbon fluid having low pour point and low or no BTEX content combined with suitable additives, in particular with a thickening agent additive. | 10-16-2014 |
