ALDEHYDES AS A CATALYST FOR AN OXIDATIVE BREAKER

摘要

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for using aldehydes as a catalyst for oxidative breakers. An embodiment of the present disclosure is a method comprising: providing a treatment fluid that comprises: an aqueous base fluid, a polymeric gelling agent, a breaker that comprises an oxidative salt, and a catalyst that comprises an aldehyde; allowing the breaker to interact with the polymeric gelling agent; and allowing the viscosity of the treatment fluid to reduce.
