Polymeric additives for enhancement of treatment fluids comprising viscoelastic surfactants and methods of use

摘要

A subterranean treatment additive comprising a viscoelastic surfactant and an amphiphilic polymer. Wherein the amphiphilic polymer comprises a hydrophobic component, and a hydrophilic component, the hydrophilic component itself comprising at least 15 monomer units. The subterranean treatment additive may be used as part of a treatment fluid with an aqueous base fluid that may be a brine.
