Methods relating to predicting subterranean formation damage from deformable additives

Predicting subterranean formation damages from deformable additives in treatment fluids may include measuring exponential shear values for samples comprising a base fluid and at least one deformable additive. Then the relative pore plugging propensity of the deformable additives may be determined by...

More Information
Summary:Predicting subterranean formation damages from deformable additives in treatment fluids may include measuring exponential shear values for samples comprising a base fluid and at least one deformable additive. Then the relative pore plugging propensity of the deformable additives may be determined by comparing the exponential shear values or rheological values derived therefrom from either two or more deformable additives to each other or from one or more deformable additives to a pore plugging propensity scale.
