Abstract
Description
field of invention
[0001] The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for treating a subterranean well formation to stimulate the production of hydrocarbons, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for fracturing a well formation. Background technique
[0002] Various techniques have been developed for treating subterranean formations to stimulate the production of hydrocarbons. For example, hydraulic fracture acidizing methods are often used, according to which a portion of the formation to be excited is separated by conventional plugging, etc., and an excitation fluid containing gel, acid, mortar, etc. is pumped through the drilled well into the separated portion of the formation middle. The pressurized excitation fluid pushes against the structural layer with a very high force, thereby creating and propagating cracks in the structural layer. But the requirement to separate the structural layers with plugging is time consuming and adds considerably to...
