Abstract

1/1 resumo sistemas, métodos e processos de fraturamento não hidráulico e de distribuição de propante de espuma fria são fornecidos métodos e sistemas de fraturar formações subterrâneas compreendendo bombear gás natural da fase metacrítica em uma formação subterrânea para criar ou ampliar uma ou mais fissuras na formação. os métodos e sistemas podem compreender adicionalmente manter ou aumentar a pressão do gás natural de fase metacrítica na formação por bombeamento de mais gás natural de fase metacrítica nas fissuras para manter as fissuras abertas. os métodos e sistemas podem adicionalmente compreender distribuir um propante na formação subterrânea. os métodos e sistemas descritos podem ser usados para extrair os hidrocarbonetos de formações subterrâneas, sem a utilização de líquidos.1/1 overview Non-hydraulic fracturing and cold foam proppant distribution systems, methods and processes are provided for methods and systems for fracturing underground formations comprising pumping natural gas from the metacritic phase into an underground formation to create or enlarge one or more cracks in the formation. formation. The methods and systems may further comprise maintaining or increasing the pressure of methacritic phase natural gas in pumping formation of more methacritic phase natural gas in the cracks to keep the cracks open. the methods and systems may further comprise distributing a proppant in the underground formation. The methods and systems described may be used to extract hydrocarbons from underground formations without the use of liquids.
