Hydraulic Fracturing & Shale Wetting Phenomena

Wednesday, 9 April
Grand Hall C
Technical Session
This session focuses on understanding the most recent advancement in fracturing fluid chemistry to improve performance at field high-temperature conditions. Lab and field results will be presented for new non-crosslinked foam and high-temperature seawater fracturing fluid. Additionally, several technical papers will discuss surfactant wettability optimization and how better wettability characterization would improve well productivity.
