Definitions
- Oil and natural gas can be produced from wells having porous and permeable subterranean formations.
- the porosity of the formation permits the formation to store oil and gas, and the permeability of the formation permits the oil or gas fluid to move through the formation. Permeability of the formation is essential to permit oil and gas to flow to a location where it can be pumped from the well.
- the permeability of the formation holding the gas or oil is insufficient for the desired recovery of oil and gas.
- the permeability of the formation drops to the extent that further recovery becomes uneconomical.
- the proppant material or propping agent is typically a particulate material, such as sand and (man-made) engineered proppants, such as resin coated sand and high-strength ceramic materials (e.g., sintered bauxite, crystalline ceramic bubbles, and ceramic (e.g., glass) beads), which are carried into the fracture by a fluid.

- Treated proppants described herein are useful, for example, in facilitating the removal of fracturing fluids that have been injected into subterranean formation, including increasing the removal rate of the fracturing fluid. While not wanting to be bound by theory, it is believed this enhanced back-production of the fracturing fluids is due to the fluorinated siloxane altering the wettability of the proppant, thus rendering the proppant hydrophobic, oleophobic, and non- wetted by the fracturing fluids.
- An additional advantage of enhancing the fluid production from the fracture comprising the proppant treated with the fluorinated siloxane is thought to be the reduction in turbulent flow that should significantly reduce non-Darcy effects. Non-Darcy effects can effectively reduce the conductivity of a fracture by reducing fluid production.
- Advantages embodiments of treated particle having a plurality of pores is that the treated particle has at least one of water or oil imbibition up to 95% as compared to a comparable, untreated particle.
