Agent and composition for oilfield applications |
摘要 |
An agent for oilfield applications capable of being dispersed in water is nanofibrillar cellulose. The nanofibrillar cellulose mixed in water gives shear-thinning behavior to the composition, which is pumped to a subterranean oil-containing formation to aid in oil recovery. |

1. An agent for oilfield applications capable of being dispersed in water, said agent comprising:
nanofibrillar cellulose comprising predominantly non-parenchymal cellulose, wherein the nanofibrillar cellulose is made of cellulose raw material or cellulose pulp that is chemically premodified to make the cellulose raw material or cellulose pulp more labile, and wherein the nanofibrillar cellulose is a rheology modifying agent or a viscosifier, both giving a viscosity above 1000 Pa·s at shear rates of 1×E-4−1×E3 l/s when dispersed at concentration of 0.5 wt-% in water. |
