Previous Friction Reducers options Friction reducers (FR) are commonly used in slick-water fracturing. The most common types of FR use water-soluble polymers, often containing a polymer called polyacrylamide (PAM), that reduces friction between fluids and wellbore surfaces. They work by creating a thin film on the pipe’s surface, which reduces the fluid’s contact area with […]
Why do friction reducers use polymers? Friction reducers (FR) work by dissipating eddies formed in turbulent flow near the casing wall, thereby minimizing friction. Operators and pressure pumping companies rely on FRs to enable using higher pump rates without compromising wellbore integrity during hydraulic fracturing operations. There are plenty of FR options on the market […]
