Fracture Fluid Performance (Flowback) Chip with 120 nm Matrix, and 4 Ports

The patented Flowback S100 Chip powers our industry-leading Flowback test and is designed to represent the pore geometries of shale formations during hydraulic fracturing, and includes four inlets/outlets, a high permeability frac zone, a surrounding nano matrix (with oil pockets) and oil accumulation channels. The Flowback test enables visualization and measurement of how surfactants, friction reducers, and fluid packages interact within representative porous media during hydraulic fracturing. The test helps to identify top-performing fluid packages and visually reveal formation damage mechanisms.
