Wellbore cleaning technologies for shale-gas horizontal wells: Difficulties and countermeasures
The application of horizontal well drilling and large-scale sand fracturing can secure an increased production in shale gas reservoirs despite of frequent gas wellbore blockage. It is vital to remove the residual bridge plug debris and sand in wellbore cleaning operation and to ensure an unblocked d...
