...Fluid Formulation Formate brines were used to prepare the xanthan-based gravel pack carrier fluid. The brine pH was first adjusted to approximately 7 before the fluid additives were mixed. Xanthan polymer and the nanosuspension additive were added to the brine at required concentrations...

... Abstract The magnetorheological fluids (MRF), or magnetic field responsive fluids, are a combination of magnetically polarizable particles in a carrier fluid. This type of fluid has the ability to modify their rheological properties under the influence of a magnetic field. The generation...

... and linear gel carrier fluids have been performed. Particularly important has been the workover project performed in year 2000 on the platform D where the FP technique with linear gel carrier fluid (HEC ranging from 20 to 40 pptg)2 was predominantly used in treating fairly low permeability formation...

..., - optimizing drill-in-fluids mud cake removal, -job design and execution, gravel carrier fluids filtration requirements, -postjob remedial treatments and diversion techniques as well. Introduction The most prolific reservoirs in Campos Basin are Tertiary and upper Cretaceous unconsolidated turbidites...

... was completed in 2 stages using a horizontal stack pack approach. Perforation packing was optimized by performing a staged acid prepack with the guns in the hole utilizing a 10w density synthatic gravel substitute in a shear thinning carrier fluid. This was a world first achievement at a cased hole gravel pack...
