Investigation of a New Fracturing Fluid and Conductivity Enhancement Technology on Coalbed Methane Production

摘要

Resutls of recent field trials with a newly developed fracturing-fluid system and liquid surface-modification additive for coating proppant are presented in this paper. The work was performed in the Underpressured Fruitland Coal (UFTC) gas reservoir in the Northern San Juan Basin of Colorado and New Mexico.
