Designing Methodology for Identifying Different Types of Influx Entering in a Well Bore during Drilling and Study of Influx Behavior
Abstract: Drillers frequently encounter kick in drilling operations. Kick refers to the unwanted entry of formation fluid into the well bore. Primary well control and secondary well control are used to control influx entry into a well during drilling operations. Primary well control refers to making the overbalance by the hydrostatic pressure exerted by drilling fluid on the formation pressure. Secondary well control refers to controlling the kick through the use …

Mud Acid Effect on Fines Migration Problem Using a Newly Developed Al/Zr-Based Clay Stabilizer (A): Mitigation Can Happen
Abstract: Sandstone reservoirs exhibit severe fines migration problems subsequent to conventional mud acid (HCl: HF) treatments. The acid treatment proved to be effective for a relatively short period of time, with a sudden production decline owing to either that mud acid spent rapidly in close proximity to the wellbore, causing clays to migrate into the acidized area and re-plug the formation; or that the mud acid system actually weakens the structure …

An Overview of Recent Advances in Viscoelastic Surfactant based Fracturing Fluid Technology
Abstract: High percentages of oil and gas wells are hydraulically fractured worldwide in order to make economically producible at an efficient production rate. Cross-linked polymer fluids are in use for decades to stimulate oil and gas wells. Even though these fluids exhibit exceptional viscosity, thermal stability, proppant transportability and fluid leak-off control; extensive formation damage by polymer residues demanded a clean fracturing fluid technology. New generation of fracturing fluids based upon …
