Storable liquid suspension of hollow particles
Provided are compositions and methods of using a liquid suspension of hollow particles comprising a plurality of hollow particles, water, a suspending aid, and a stabilizer selected from the group consisting of a non-ionic surfactant, a latex, an oleaginous fluid, porous silica, and combinations thereof. The liquid suspension is homogenous. An example method includes statically storing the liquid suspension in a container for at least one week; wherein the liquid suspension maintains a difference in density from the top of the container to the bottom of the container of less than one pound per gallon while stored. The method further includes adding the liquid suspension to a treatment fluid; wherein the liquid suspension reduces the density of the treatment fluid; and introducing the treatment fluid into a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation.
WELL CONDITIONING METHOD FOR WIRELINE LOGGING USING DEDICATED AQUEOUS BASED DRILLING FLUID COMPOSITION
The present invention addresses to a wireline logging method using an aqueous based drilling fluid with xanthan gum and polyols in order to improve the quality of the acquisition of geological data from wireline logging (final logging) in open hole and reducing the risk of the tool getting stuck. It can also be applied in well control situations and used in the integral drilling of the reservoir, but with different application bias of the multifunctional fluid.

Reservoir drilling fluids consist of cationic heterocyclic polymers, synthesis, formulation, and applications
A wellbore fluid may include a base fluid and at least one cationic heterocyclic polymer in an amount effective to increase a viscosity of the base fluid, the cationic heterocyclic polymer includes at least two distinct cyclic monomers, at least one of which has at least two heteroatoms in the cyclic structure. A method of drilling a wellbore may introduce such wellbore fluid into the wellbore. A method of producing a cationic heterocyclic polymer may include reacting, in a solvent selected from the group that includes tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dichloromethane, alcoholic solvents, chlorinated solvents, aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, or mixture thereof, at least two distinct cyclic monomers, at least one of which has at least two heteroatoms in the cyclic structure.
