Sentence examples for foam fracturing from inspiring English sources

In this article, an experimental study on rheological properties and proppant transport performance of the GRF CO2 system is performed by using a large-scale high-temperature and high-pressure foam fracturing fluid test system with the correlations for fracturing fluid rheological parameters, critical settling velocity and proppant settling velocity obtained.

A high-parameter foam fracturing fluid test system was adopted in this study.

"Foam fracturing has been developed in Canada to minimize the use of water and other environmental issues caused by the water injection.

The correlations can be incorporated in a fracture propagation simulator to evaluate the foam fracturing efficiency.

However, the physical mechanism of foam fracturing remains poorly understood, and this lack of understanding extends to other applications of compressible foams such as fire-fighting, energy storage, and enhanced oil recovery.

In this paper, the rheology of CO2 viscoelastic surfactant foam fracturing fluid was investigated under downhole condition on a large scale flow-loop experiment system.

In addition, fracture cleanup simulations show that fracturing fluid cleanup for foam based fracturing fluids could take the order of 10 days as opposed to that of viscous fracpad which could take up to 1000 days; demonstrating the advantage of using dry foams.

Now, Princeton researchers led by Howard Stone, the Donald R. Dixon '69 and Elizabeth W. Dixon Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, have experimentally tested a detailed description of foam's fracturing behavior.

The model combines fluid transport in reservoir matrix and fracture with rock mechanics equations and thus allows for considering the effects of foam on fracture dynamics.

The Acutrak Standard, Acutrak Mini, Synthes 3.0, and Herbert-Whipple screws were tested using a polyurethane foam scaphoid fracture model.

Simulation results showed that the combined effects of the negative pressure, collision, extrusion, and shear generated in the cavity cause the foam to fracture.
