Abstract EN
Drilling and fracturing fluids can interact with reservoir rock and cause formation damage that impedes hydrocarbon production.
Tight sandstone reservoir with well-developed natural fractures has a complex pore structure where pores and pore throats have a wide range of diameters; formation damage in such type of reservoir can be complicated and severe.
Reservoir rock samples with a wide range of fracture widths are tested through a multistep coreflood platform, where formation damage caused by the drilling and/or fracturing fluid is quantitatively evaluated and systematically studied.
To further mitigate this damage, an acidic treating fluid is screened and evaluated using the same coreflood platform.
Experimental results indicate that the drilling fluid causes the major damage, and the chosen treating fluid can enhance rock permeability both effectively and efficiently at least at the room temperature with the overburden pressure.
