Nanoparticles for Formation Fines Fixation and Improving Performance of Surfactant Structure Fluids

Abstract

The migration of formation fines during hydrocarbon production has been a major problem to resolve in our industry. In many<br>reservoirs fines migrate to the near wellbore region where they concentrate and choke hydrocarbon production. To prevent this<br>problem, migratable fines should be kept or fixated as far away from near wellbore region as possible.
