Water-based friction-reducing slurry compositions, formation treating fluids therefrom, and method for making and using same

Abstract

Water-based friction reducing slurry compositions including a salt composition in an amount sufficient to result in undissolved salts in the water-based friction reducing slurry compositions designed to reduce or prevent hydration of the friction-reducing polymers in the water-based friction reducing slurry compositions during production, storage, and transportation, treating fluid compositions including a water-based friction reducing slurry compositions and methods of making the water-based friction reducing slurry compositions and the treating fluid compositions and methods of treating subterranean oil and/or gas bearing formations using the treating fluid compositions.
