Investigation of Factors for Strengthening a Wellbore by Propping Fractures

SPE Drilling & Completion, 2008
Summary Wellbore strengthening or stress cage implementation has been recognized as an effective means of dealing with lost circulation during drilling operations. One of the mechanisms developed for strengthening a wellbore has been to prop induced and existing fractures with particulate lost circulation materials (LCM) to effectively ...

Eco-Friendly Creation of Propped Hydraulic Fractures

SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference, 2012
Abstract A novel method for creating short, highly conductive fractures in wells to bypass formation damage has been developed. The method uses relatively small material volumes, low horsepower and pump rate, produces minimal environment effect, and leaves the formation face and proppant pack residue free. Function and application of the

Measurement of Gel Cleanup in a Propped Fracture With Dynamic Fracture Conductivity Experiments

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2008
Abstract The effect of residual fracture fluid gels on the conductivity of propped fractures has commonly been measured in the laboratory with a static fracture conductivity procedure in which a certain amount of proppant is placed in a fracture conductivity cell, and then fracture fluid is injected into the cell.

Propped Fracturing in Gas Carbonate Formations in Mexico

SPE International Petroleum Conference and Exhibition in Mexico, 2000
Abstract Since 1995 Pemex E & P has been using acid fracturing to increase production rates in gas-condensate fields in carbonate formations at the Veracruz Asset. The increase in production from fractured wells is an average of 0.5 MMCFD per well.

Fracture conductivity of a bauxite-propped geothermal system

2014
Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) are geothermal resources that are developed through hydraulic stimulation. Inadequate permeability and production from natural fractures and pores can be overcome via injection of cold water below fracturing pressure, by conventional hydraulic fracturing, or by some cyclic combination of these processes.
