Water-conformance fracturing fluid

Sand texture

Enhance fracture geometry and increase proppant pack conductivity while lowering water production

FracCON water-conformance fracturing fluid was specifically developed for high-water-cut wells with recoverable reserves near oil-to-water or gas-to-water contact. Its new-generation relative permeability modifier is capable of producing enhanced fracture geometry and increased proppant pack conductivity while mitigating water cut after fracture stimulation treatments.

Increase fracture half-length and well productivity

FracCON fluid is a linear gelled polymer fluid with excellent fluid loss control and drag reduction properties resulting in low friction pressure. Adding an encapsulated breaker further reduces viscosity after the fracturing treatment, optimizing proppant pack conductivity and effective fracture half-length. The breaker is designed for proppant-laden stages and is easily metered through conventional dry-additive feeders.

The FracCON treatment markedly reduced water production compared with a conventional treatment.
