发明名称 HYDRAULIC FRACTURING
摘要 An improvement over known hydraulic fracturing fluids. Boundary layer kinetic mixing material is added to components of fracturing fluid wherein kinetic mixing material is a plurality of particles wherein at least 25% of particles are several types, i.e., having surface characteristics of thin walls, three dimensional wedge-like sharp blades, points, jagged bladelike surfaces, thin blade surfaces, three-dimensional blade shapes that may have shapes similar to a “Y”, “V” or “X” shape or other geometric shape, slightly curved thin walls having a shape similar to an egg shell shape, crushed hollow spheres, sharp bladelike features, 90° corners that are well defined, conglomerated protruding arms in various shapes, such as cylinders, rectangles, Y-shaped particles, X-shaped particles, octagons, pentagon, triangles, and diamonds. The resulting fluid exhibits improved dispersion of additives as well providing stabilization to a hydraulic fracture by reducing incidents of proppant grain column collapse and by reducing proppant flow back.

主权项 1. A method of hydraulic fracturing a formation comprising the steps of: forming a blend of kinetic mixing material and a carrier fluid, wherein said kinetic mixing material is comprised of particles wherein at least 25% have a complex three-dimensional surface area having a sharp surface; injecting said blend into a well dispersing said kinetic mixing material by boundary mixing on large surfaces in said well; hydraulic fracturing a formation; penetrating said hydraulically fractured formation with said kinetic mixing material.
