Overview

Overview

Protect your underpressured and water-sensitive formations during hydraulic fracturing with the Baker Hughes MethoFrac™ family of fracturing fluids.  

These methanol-based, crosslinked fracturing fluid systems provide higher viscosity to optimize proppant transport and fracture efficiency. And with methanol as the base fluid, you can minimize clay swelling and migration, tubular friction pressure, and emulsion tendency.

MethoFrac fluids can also be customized to remove or prevent capillary water blocks and improve fluid recovery.

Methanol concentration and crosslink and breaking time can be adjusted to achieve your specific application requirements. The fluid can be used with methanol concentrations as high as 100%.
