A multi-slug staged plugging method applicable to a fractured formation includes the following steps: 1), determining an average opening of fractures around a well as D, performing first-stage plugging by using bridging particles having a particle size being slightly smaller than D and an average particle size represented as D.sub.1, and determining a particle size of each of the following stages of plugging particles sequentially to form a tight plugging layer; 2), injecting plugging slurry only containing bridging particles having an average particle size of D.sub.1 through slugs first to form a bridging particle layer; 3), injecting plugging slurry containing plugging particles having an average particle size of D.sub.2D.sub.n-1 in several times through a plurality of slugs to form a particle filling layer; and 4), finally injecting plugging slurry containing plugging particles having an average particle size of D.sub.n through the slugs to form a tight plugging layer.

Liners may be cemented in a well bore contaminated with an oil-based or synthetic fluid by injecting an aqueous cleaning fluid into the well, energizing the cleaning fluid to displace fluids present in an annulus between the liner and the bore and to create turbulent flow of the cleaning fluid in the annulus, and injecting a cementitious slurry into the annulus after the cleaning fluid. The cleaning fluid comprises a weighting agent, a suspending agent, a surfactant, and nut shell particulates. The turbulent flow of the cleaning fluid through the annulus is effective to remove oily residues left by the oil-based or synthetic fluid.

A date tree waste-based lost circulation material (LCM) is provided. The date tree waste LCM may include includes fibers from the date tree waste produced from processing date trees in the production of date fruits. The date tree waste may include fibers from one or more of the following: date tree trunks, date tree rachis, date tree leaflets, date tree panicles, and date tree roots. The date tree waste LCM may include fibers having lengths in the range of 5 millimeters (5 mm) to 15 mm, diameters in the range of 0.5 mm to 0.8 mm, and having an aspect ratio range of 6 to 30. Methods of lost circulation control using and manufacture of a date tree waste LCM are also provided.

A method of treating a wellbore comprises supporting a first tubular member in a housing; coupling a second tubular member to the first tubular member via a connector; the first tubular member, the second tubular member, or both comprising a chemical deployment modular device charged with a plurality of particulates preloaded with a well treatment additive; and deploying the first and second tubular members into the wellbore.

A date tree fiber mix lost circulation material (LCM) is provided. The date tree fiber mix LCM may include includes date tree trunk fibers produced from date tree trunks and date tree leaf and leaf stem fibers produced from date tree leaves and leaf stems. The LCM include a mix of 30% by weight date tree trunk fibers and 70% date tree leaf and leaf stem fibers, 40% by weight date tree trunk fibers and 60% date tree leaf and leaf stem fibers, 50% by weight date tree trunk fibers and 50% date tree leaf and leaf stem fibers. Methods of lost circulation control using and manufacture of a date tree fiber mix LCM are also provided.

Methods for propping a fracture. The method comprises providing a treatment fluid comprising a polyester, a water-miscible solvent, and a proppant and then pumping the treatment fluid through an aqueous fluid within a wellbore to form an amorphous polymeric web. The method further comprises pumping the amorphous polymeric web into a fracture within a subterranean formation and then allowing the amorphous polymeric web to dissolve.

A lost circulation material (LCM) having flakes formed from date tree leaflets is provided. The flakes of the date tree leaflet LCM may be formed by tearing and shredding date tree leaflets from date trees. The date tree leaflets may be obtained from date tree pruning performed by date tree farming industries. The date tree leaflet LCM may be added to o a drilling fluid to mitigate or prevent lost circulation in a well. Methods of lost circulation control with the date tree leaflets LCM are also provided.

A date tree waste-based lost circulation material (LCM) is provided. The date tree waste LCM may include includes fibers from the date tree waste produced from processing date trees in the production of date fruits. The date tree waste may include fibers from one or more of the following: date tree trunks, date tree rachis, date tree leaflets, date tree panicles, and date tree roots. The date tree waste LCM may include fibers having lengths in the range of 5 millimeters (5 mm) to 15 mm, diameters in the range of 0.5 mm to 0.8 mm, and having an aspect ratio range of 6 to 30. Methods of lost circulation control using and manufacture of a date tree waste LCM are also provided.

A rapidly dehydrating fluid (RDF) composition that forms a permeable and decomposable plug and methods of lost circulation control and manufacture of the RDF composition. The RDF composition may include a carrier fluid such as water, a cellulosic microfiber viscosifier, date tree seed particles, and fibers formed from date tree waste such as date tree trunks. The RDF composition may mitigate or prevent lost circulation by forming a decomposable plug in a fracture of the lost circulation zone and may also enable the production of hydrocarbons from the zone without removal of the plug.
