<p>A method of fracturing a hydrocarbon reservoir penetrated by a well, the method comprising introducing hydrocarbon fracturing fluid comprising liquefied petroleum gas into the hydrocarbon reservoir through the well at a pressure high enough to form a fracture in the hydrocarbon reservoir, narrowing the fracture and driving bridging agent into the fracture to form a bridged fracture that is restricted from further fracturing, the bridged fracture being permeable to fluids from the hydrocarbon reservoir, and increasing the pressure of the hydrocarbon fracturing fluid in the well to a pressure that is high enough to form a subsequent fracture in the hydrocarbon reservoir.</p> |
