More Information
Summary:Methods and compositions for stimulating of the production of hydrocarbons (e.g., formation crude oil and/or formation gas) from subterranean formations are provided. In some embodiments, the compositions are emulsions or microemulsions, which may include water, a solvent, and a surfactant. In some embodiments, methods of selecting a composition for treating an oil or gas well are provided. La présente invention concerne des procédés et des compositions de stimulation de la production d'hydrocarbures (par exemple, du pétrole brut d'une formation et/ou du gaz d'une formation) à partir de formations souterraines. Dans certains modes de réalisation, les compositions sont des émulsions ou des microémulsions, qui peuvent comprendre de l'eau, un solvant et un tensioactif. Dans certains modes de réalisation, l'invention concerne des procédés de sélection d'une composition de traitement d'un puits de pétrole ou de gaz.
