摘要: This invention relates generally to the art of hydraulic fracturing in subterranean formations and more particularly a method means for optimizing fracture conductivity. According present invention, well productivity is increased by sequentially injecting into wellbore alternate stages fluids having contrast their ability transport propping agents improve proppant placement, or amount transported agents.
