Title:
METHODS FOR MONITORING THE FORMATION AND TRANSPORT OF AN ACIDIZING FLUID USING OPTICOANALYTICAL DEVICES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/022558
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
In or near real-time monitoring of fluids can take place using an opticoana!ytical device that is configured for monitoring the fluid. Fluids can be monitored prior to or during their introduction into a subterranean formation using the opticoanalytical devices. Produced fluids from a subterranean formation can be monitored in a like manner. The methods can comprise providing at least one acid; combining the at least one acid with a base fluid to form an acidizing fluid; and monitoring a characteristic of the acidizing fluid using a first opticoanalytical device that is in optical communication with a flow pathway for transporting the acidizing fluid.
