Gas storage fields have numerous wells that are used for both injection during low demand periods and withdrawal during high demand periods. As these wells age, their deliverability declines due to several factors. Stimulation treatments (hydraulic fracturing of the formation) are routinely used in gas industry to improve gas well productivity. This study was conducted on a large natural gas st...

This paper investigated the effect of Pr₆O11 addition on the acid resistance of ceramic proppant. Acid resistance of proppants can be improved by introducing Pr₆O11 into the Al₂O₃-CaO-MgO-SiO₂ (ACMS) system. To illustrate and explain the mechanism of acid resistance, the samples were characterized by different techniques, using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SE...

in this work, the characteristics of flow and heat transfer of a fluid containing nano particles of aluminum oxide with the water volume fraction (0.1-0.2-0.3)(v/v) percent of the reports. the overall heat transfer coefficient, heat transfer and the average heat transfer fluid containing nano water - aluminum oxide in a horizontal double pipe counter flow heat exchanger under turbulent flow con...

A stagewise theoretical substantiation of the renovation vibrowave method influencing near-wellbore zone reservoir for restoring well productivity is presented. The area treatment by proposed covers with a heterogeneous permeability fractures formed fracking. In this decrease in concentration colmatants occurs due to change direction contaminants migration. Under influence pressure pulses, they...

Unsteady oscillatory flow of generalized Burgers’ fluid in a circular channel tube in the porous medium is investigated under the influence of time-dependent trapezoidal pressure gradient given by an infinite Fourier series. An exact analytical expression for the solution for the fluid velocity and the shear stress are recovered by using the similarity arguments together with the integral trans...

Summary Sand screenout is one of the most serious and frequent challenges that threaten efficiency safety hydraulic fracturing. Current low prices oil/gas drive operators to control costs by using lower viscosity lesser volumes fluid for proppant injection—thus reducing sand-carrying capacity in treatment increasing risk screenout. analyses predict as isolated incidents based on interpretation ...
