Polymer-Free Fracturing Fluids
Polymer-Free Fracturing Fluids Enhance Fracture Conductivity
The Schlumberger ClearFRAC family of polymer-free fracturing fluids enables a larger effective fracture half-length. The ClearFRAC fluid system also reduces friction pressure, allowing operators to save costs with reduced pumping equipment. Viscosity remains constant at a given temperature until contacted by formation fluids or added chemical breakers.
Applications include
- nitrogen and carbon dioxide (CO2) foam fracturing
- stimulation in hard-to-reach zones
- offshore operations.
The three ClearFRAC formulations each have specific applications.
Maximize conductivity with polymer-free fracturing.
Significantly reduce operations costs with nitrogen foam fracturing treatments.
Enhance fracture efficiency using the innovative viscoelastic surfactant (VES) system for low friction pressure and excellent proppant-carrying capacity.
