Overview

The novel emulsified fluid system improves filtercake removal in high-temperature wells, suggesting enhanced well performance and minimal corrosion damage.

Key Points

  • The emulsified filtercake removal fluid achieved about 50% dissolution of the filtercake after 5 days at 200 °F, demonstrating effective removal.
  • Conventional methods typically fail within 24 hours, which this new system significantly overcomes, indicating its reliability.
  • Thermal stability tests confirmed the emulsified fluid's stability without phase separation after extended exposure to high temperatures.
  • Corrosion impact on C95 steel was low due to the acid being sequestered, highlighting safety for well materials.
