The invention discloses a method of cold water fracturing, and belongs to the technical field of oil-gas
well engineering. The method of cold water fracturing comprises the steps that S1, fracturing liquid is prepared, specifically, the fracturing liquid which has no
precipitation of
solid materials in the state of 1-5 DEG C and with a stable
colloid structure is selected; S2, the temperature of the fracturing liquid is lowered, specifically, ice blocks are added into the fracturing liquid in the S1 so that temperature cooling treatment can be conducted; S3, formal fracturing is conducted; andS4, well covering is conducted, specifically, the fracturing liquid is poured into a stratum, after the fracturing
liquid temperature does not change, fracture liquid is recycled. According to the method of the cold water fracturing, improvement is conducted in terms of water power fracture, the influence of temperature on racks are brought into traditional water power fracture, the fracture is conducted through the cold water, the rocks are in the action of
solid flow
mechanics and are further subjected to
congelation damage, crack tip stress and the rock inner stress supplement each other to reach the effect of optimization of
rock breaking.
