For most modern development systems, hydraulic fracturing is the main method of intensification and maintenance of hydrocarbon production. Hydraulic fracturing is achieved with the volume of communicating voids between the granules of fractional proppant. The volume of voids should be maximized, which is achieved by selecting the optimal proppant fraction composition, and in addition, hydraulic fracturing fluid, the choice of which is based on a number of competing factors: high viscosity, which provides the necessary hydraulic width created at the buffer stage of the crack, as well as prediction of subsidence proppant in the fracture and subsequent premature stop of the injection, which creates additional costs. One of the new solutions, which will increase the efficiency and expand potential objects for hydraulic fracturing, is the use of a liquid destructor with a flow into the stream during the injection of the fracturing mixture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
