Well treatment

Claim 1

THE METHOD OF TREATING AN EARTH FORMATION PENETRATING THE BORE OF A WELL WHICH COMPRISES FORMING A SLURRY OF A PARTICULATED SOLID MATERIAL IN A PUMPABLE UNSTABILIZED EMULSION COMPRISING AN AQUEOUS PHASE AND A HYDROCARBON OIL PHASE, SAID EMULSION BEING FORMED IN THE PRESENCE OF AN EMULSIFYING AGENT SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF A WATER SOLUTION OF THE CONDENSATION PRODUDCT OF PARAISO-OCTYL PHENOL AND ETHYLENE OXIDE, THE REACTION PRODUCT OF DIETHYLENE TRIAMINE AND DILINOLEIC ACID HEATED TOGETHER AT ABOUT 2000* C. UNTIL NO MORE WATER IS EVOLVED, THE REACTION PRODUCT OF ETHYLENE DIAMINE AND DILINOLEIC ACID HEATED TOGETHER AT ABOUT 200* C. UNTIL NO MORE WATER IS EVOLVED, THE REACTION PRODUCT OF OCTADEYLAMINE AND OXALIC ACID HEATED TOGETHER ABOUT 200* C. UNTIL NO MORE WATER IS EVOLED, AND DIOCTODECYLAMINE, SAID PARTICULATED SOLID MATERIAL BEING SUBSTANTIALLY INSOLUBLE IN THE EMULSION AND THE SIZE OF THE PARTICLES OF THE PARTICULATED MATERIAL BEING CAPABLE OF PASSING THROUGH A NO. 4 STANDARD SIEVE BUT NOT A NO. 120-STANDARD SIEVE, INTRODUCING SAID SLURRY INTO THE WELL SO AS TO BRING IT INTO CONTACT WITH THE EARTH FORMATION TO BE TREATED AND APPLYING PRESSURE UPON THE SLURRY IN THE WELL SUFFICIENT TO FRACTURE THE EARTH FORMATION, SAID PARTICULATED SOLID REMAINING SUSPENDED IN THE EMULSION AND SAID EMULSION REMAINING UNRESOLVED UNTIL INJECTED INTO THE EARTH FORMATION AND THEREIN BREAKING TO RELEASE THE PARTICULATED SOLID MATERIAL FROM SUSPENSION IN THE EMULSION DEPOSITING THE PARTICULATED SOLID IN IN THE EARTH FORMATION.
