Abstract
Improved aqueous fracturing fluids are disclosed that are useful to fracture tight (low permeability) subterranean formations. Gas wells treated with these fracturing fluids have rapid cleanup and enhanced production. The fluids contain small but sufficient amounts of certain amine oxides to aid in the removal of fracturing fluid from the formation. By facilitating the removal of fluid from invaded zones, the damage to fracture faces in the formation is minimized. The amine oxides correspond to formula I, wherein R1 is an aliphatic group of from 6 to about 20 carbon atoms, and R2 and R3 are each independently alkyl of from 1 to about 4 carbon atoms. The amine oxides in which R1 is an alkyl group are preferred, and those in which R1 is an alkyl group of from 8 to 10 carbon atoms and R2 and R3 are each methyl or ethyl groups are most preferred.
