Abstract

The major types of treating fluids that are in use in sand control are conventional linear gels, borate-crosslinked fluids, organometallic-crosslinked fluids, and aluminum phosphate-ester oil gels. The general behavior of these fluid systems is described. Fluid loss properties, breaking systems, and resulting formation damage are discussed and recommendations for treating fluid selection in sand control are offered.
