PERMEABLE AND DECOMPOSABLE PLUG FORMING RAPIDLY DEHYDRATING FLUID (RDF)

摘要

A rapidly dehydrating fluid (RDF) composition that forms a permeable and decomposable plug is provided. The RDF composition may include a carrier fluid such as water, a celiulosic microfiber viscosifier, date tree seed particles, and fibers formed from date tree waste such as date tree trunks. The RDF composition may mitigate or prevent lost circulation by forming a decomposable plug in a fracture of the lost circulation zone and may also enable the production of hydrocarbons from the zone without removal of the plug. Methods of lost circulation control and manufacture of the RDF composition are also provided.
