20100022418 | METHOD AND COMPOSITION TO INCREASE VISCOSITY OF CROSSLINKED POLYMER FLUIDS - The invention discloses a well treatment composition for use in a subterranean formation comprising: a carrier fluid; and a viscoelastic surfactant being present in a concentration of less than about 1.5% by weight. Optionally, the fluid comprises a crosslinked polymer in a thickening amount in the carrier fluid. The invention also discloses a method to increase the viscosity of a fluid, the method comprising: providing a fluid comprising a thickening amount of a crosslinked polymer; adding a viscoelastic surfactant at a given concentration to the fluid; taking the fluid to a given temperature; defining a viscosity profile of the fluid depending of the concentration and the temperature; comparing said viscosity profile to a viscosity profile of the crosslinked polymer fluid alone; and defining an optimum concentration of the viscoelastic surfactant for each temperature. | 01-28-2010 |
20110319302 | METHOD OF TREATING A WELLBORE AT HIGH TEMPERATURE IN CONTACT WITH CARBON DIOXIDE - A method for treating a subterranean formation is made of steps of providing a composition comprising a carrier fluid, a polymer viscosifying agent, carbon dioxide and a formate salt or formic acid; injecting into a wellbore, the composition; contacting the composition with the subterranean formation, wherein the temperature is above 100 degrees Celsius at this contact; and allowing the composition to treat the subterranean formation. | 12-29-2011 |
