Abstract
A method of hydraulic fracturing may comprise mixing at least one liquid sand mixture with a fluid to produce a fracturing fluid; and conveying the fracturing fluid to two or more wellbores simultaneously, wherein the wellbores penetrate a subterranean formation.
Claims20
A method of hydraulic fracturing comprising:
- mixing at least one liquid sand mixture with a fluid to produce a fracturing fluid;
- and
- conveying the fracturing fluid to two or more wellbores simultaneously, wherein the wellbores penetrate a subterranean formation.
A method of preparing a fracturing fluid comprising:
- pumping two or more liquid sand mixtures from two or more liquid sand mixture sources, wherein the two or more liquid sand mixture sources differ from one another based on density, composition, crush strength or a combination thereof;
- pumping water from a water source;
- and
- combining the two or more liquid sand mixtures and the water to form the fracturing fluid.
