Phosphorus-Free Gelled Hydrocarbon Compositions and Method for Use Thereof

摘要

A method of forming a gelled organic-based fluid is disclosed. The method comprises combining an organic solvent, a viscoelastic surfactant, and a metal carboxylate crosslinker; and forming the gelled organic-based fluid. In a further aspect, the method is used to treat a subterranean formation of a well, for example for a stimulation job as fracturing or the like.
