Surfactant Additives for Stimulating Subterranean Formation During Fracturing Operations

摘要

The present invention relates to surfactant additives useful for restoring permeability of a subterranean formation and methods of use thereof. One embodiment of the present invention provides a method that includes providing a fracturing fluid having an aqueous fluid, and a microemulsion surfactant, wherein the fracturing fluid is substantially free of an organic solvent; and placing the fracturing fluid into a subterranean formation at a rate sufficient to create or enhance at least one fracture in the subterranean formation.
