- W2080662532 abstract "American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical, and Petroleum Engineers, Inc. Abstract Use of 100-mesh sand in a prepack stage ahead of the main stages of several types of stimulation treatments has greatly improved results of the treatments. The use of 100-mesh has proved highly effective in improving results of both conventional fracturing and acid fracturing treatments. The technique has been applied successfully in many types of formations in many areas. Several theories have been advanced concerning the mechanism by which 100-mesh sand improves stimulation efficiency. Probably more than one of the mechanisms contribute. This paper describes the mechanisms by which 100-mesh paper describes the mechanisms by which 100-mesh sand may contribute to better results in various types of formations. Field results of use of 100-mesh sand in different areas and different formations are compared to results of more conventional treatments. Factors that may be involved in the design of the 100-mesh prepack stage are discussed. Introduction Originally, 100-mesh sand was used in an attempt to limit penetration of a fracture outward into the reservoir after a desired distance had been reached. The basic idea was to screenout or plug off the fracture at the tip with a pack of the fine sand. Additional fluid injected pack of the fine sand. Additional fluid injected would then tend to widen the fracture and increase conductivity. Whether or not complete plugging actually occurred at the tip of the plugging actually occurred at the tip of the fracture is a matter of conjecture. However, some of the early jobs indicated that some action of the fine sand was contributing to the successful fracturing of reservoirs that had previously screened out. In fact, wells that could not be successfully fractured with small sand (40/60 mesh) would accept large volumes of 10/20 sand at concentrations above 2 – 3 pounds per gallon if a pad of fluid containing 100-mesh sand was used ahead of the main frac stage. Several successful treatments using this technique were completed in the Rocky Mountain area, and it was noted that production results were better even in those areas where conventional fracturing had been successful. Use of the prepack technique with 100-mesh sand grew rapidly, and it is now becoming almost a standard procedure in many areas. It has also proved highly successful in acid fracturing treatments." @default.
