In JSC Samaraneftegaz, in recent years, there has been a steady trend towards a reduction in the proportion of proppant fracturing and an increase in the proportion of acid stimulation. After analyzing the previously performed hydraulic fracturing works on the carbonate reservoirs of Samaraneftegaz JSC, as well as world experience, it can be assumed that an increase in the duration of the effect of hydraulic fracturing in carbonate reservoirs can be achieved through a combination of acid fracturing with the use of a proppant (proppant) , where a crosslinked acid gel can serve as the main sand-carrying fluid. However, due to the difference in the geological conditions of carbonate reservoirs, on which the experience of using acid gel as the main sand-carrying agent was considered, the feasibility of using proppant fracturing technology on a cross-linked acid gel requires a set of studies.
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.
