Abstract

See full text

This invention relates to a method of treating a tight gas well that has been fractured with a gel solution to increase the production of hydrocarbons. The gel solutions used for fracturing typically include an aqueous portion and a polymer material. Generally, the first step of the method is to apply a soak solution to the fractured formation to mix with the aqueous portion of the gel solution to increase the volatility of the aqueous portion. The next step is to apply a dry gas treatment to the tight gas well to remove the aqueous portion of the gel solution after the volatility has been increased.
