Enhanced Load Water-Recovery Technique Improves Stimulation Results

Glenn S. Penny; Michael W. Conway; James Earl Briscoe

The roles of capillary pressure, wettability, and relative permeability in controlling load water recovery following hydraulic fracturing treatments have been examined. It has been found in laboratory studies that the judicious alteration of wettability to control capillary pressure and/or relative permeability can promote a rapid thorough cleanup of injected water. Field applications employing these concepts have resulted in enhanced load water recoveries and higher production due to longer effective frac lengths and/or higher fracture conductivities following cleanup. 25 references.

Enhanced Water Recovery Improves Stimulation Results

William G. F. Ford; Glenn S. Penny; James Earl Briscoe

The effects of capillary pressure, wettability, and relative permeability in controlling load water recovery following hydraulic-fracturing treatments have been examined. Laboratory studies have indicated that the alteration of wettability to control capillary pressure and/or relative permeability can promote a rapid, thorough cleanup of injected water. Field applications of these concepts have resulted in enhanced load water recoveries and higher production because of longer effective fracture lengths and/or higher effective fracture conductivities after treatment cleanup.
