摘要:
Apparatus and compositions for reducing the viscosity of a gelled fluid is provided. In one embodiment, a viscosity reducing microbe is disposed in a capsule and added to the gelled fluid. The gelled fluid may include a thickening agent adapted to increase its viscosity. Upon release from the capsule, the microbe begins to digest the thickening agent in the gelled fluid and/or releases enzymes that that breakdown the thickening agent.

A system and method for cavitating a producible formation is disclosed. The method include conglomerating the formation, producing the formation above its critical draw down pressure resulting in cavitation of the formation and producing the cavitated formation below a higher maximum sand free rate (MSFR).

A system and method for cavitating a producible formation is disclosed to improve hydrocarbon production and to increase a production rate without an concurrent co-production of formation particulate. The method and system include conglomerating the producible formation using a conglomerating composition. Once the producible formation is conglomerated, the conglomerated, producible formation is produced above its critical draw down pressure to form a cavity surrounding the wellborn in the conglomerated, producible formation and placing the cavitated, conglomerated, producible formation on production below a higher maximum sand free rate (MSFR).

Methods are disclosed for reducing settling rates of proppants in fracturing fluids, where the method includes injection sufficient gas into the fluid to form bubbles that reduce proppant settling rates. Compositions including a proppants make buoyant with gas bubbles are also disclosed.
