A viscous fluid is shown which is useful in treating subterranean formations. The fluid is formulated from an aqueous base, an alkyl sarcosinate surfactant and a buffer suitable for adjusting the pH of the blended fluid to a range in which the fluid is suitably viscosified. The fluid can also include an additional source of anions, such as chloride or fluoride ions, in order to increase the temperature stability of the fluid. The fluids have application for conventional well fracturing, coiled tubing fracturing, gravel packing and frac packing, as well as for use as selective water control additives and other applications. |
