Waterless Fracturing

Waterless Fracturing is a hydraulic stimulation technique in petroleum engineering that substitutes conventional water-based fracturing fluids with non-aqueous alternatives, such as liquid CO₂, liquefied petroleum gas, or nitrogen, to minimize water consumption and mitigate formation damage in frac pack completions.
