COLORED ORGANIC PEROXIDE COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR BREAKING HYDRAULIC FRACTURING FLUIDS

A breaker composition for use in a fracturing fluid comprises at least one organic peroxide (e.g., tert-butyl hydroperoxide), at least one dye (e.g., an FD&C dye), and at least one alcohol (e.g., propylene glycol). A promoter composition for use in a fracturing fluid comprises at least one promo...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:A breaker composition for use in a fracturing fluid comprises at least one organic peroxide (e.g., tert-butyl hydroperoxide), at least one dye (e.g., an FD&C dye), and at least one alcohol (e.g., propylene glycol). A promoter composition for use in a fracturing fluid comprises at least one promoter (e.g., sodium thiosulfate), at least one dye (e.g., an FD&C dye). According to certain embodiments, the dye increases the efficiency of the promoter and/or the organic peroxide, so that the break time and the peak viscosity of the aqueous treatment fluid are reduced.
