In the realm of hydraulic fracturing, the composition and performance of the fracturing fluid are critical to successful well stimulation. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. discusses how advanced integrated emulsions are playing a pivotal role in tailoring the performance of both slickwater and gel fluid systems, addressing key challenges like sand carrying and fluid resistance.

Slickwater fluids are known for their low viscosity and excellent friction reduction properties, making them ideal for creating highly conductive fractures in low-permeability reservoirs. However, their low viscosity can limit their ability to effectively suspend and transport larger proppant particles. Gel fluids, on the other hand, offer higher viscosity for better proppant carrying but can sometimes lead to increased friction and formation damage.

Integrated emulsions, developed using sophisticated supramolecular structural solution theory, offer a unique solution by providing adjustable viscoelastic properties. These advanced polymers can be incorporated into both slickwater and gel fluid systems to enhance their performance characteristics:

Enhancing Slickwater Fluids: By introducing integrated emulsions, the viscosity and suspension capabilities of slickwater can be significantly boosted without drastically increasing friction. This allows for the effective transport of a wider range of proppant sizes, making slickwater more versatile for various reservoir conditions. The 'resistance reduction' capability is particularly valuable here, as it counteracts the tendency of thickened fluids to increase pumping pressures.

Optimizing Gel Fluids: For gel fluids, these emulsions can further refine their rheological properties. They can improve the anti-shearing stability of the gel, ensuring it maintains its viscosity under the high shear rates experienced during pumping. This leads to more consistent proppant suspension and placement. The ability to customize viscosity release time and salt resistance also allows operators to fine-tune gel performance to specific reservoir temperatures and salinities.

A key advantage highlighted by NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is the operational simplification these emulsions offer. The 'no need for blending units' feature means they can be directly added to existing systems, simplifying logistics and reducing on-site footprint. This makes them an excellent choice for operators seeking to improve efficiency and manage costs effectively.

Furthermore, the focus on enhanced oil recovery (EOR) means that optimizing these fluid systems is crucial for long-term production. The improved proppant placement facilitated by these advanced fluid additives directly impacts well productivity and the overall cost-effectiveness of this specialized polymer in achieving enhanced oil recovery targets.

As an advanced oilfield sand carrying agent and resistance reducer, these integrated emulsions are proving to be invaluable tools. They represent a significant step forward in fluid rheology management, allowing for greater precision and efficiency in hydraulic fracturing operations.

In conclusion, integrated emulsions are a versatile and powerful tool for optimizing oilfield fracturing fluids, whether slickwater or gel-based. Their ability to enhance sand carrying, reduce resistance, and simplify operations makes them a cornerstone of modern, cost-effective extraction strategies.
